Whimsical illustrations in a children's picture book style inspired by wildlife, nature and the seasons.

I’m Hannah, an illustrator based in rural Norfolk, UK.

Inspired by nature and the seasons, I design cute animal characters in a children’s picture book style. I love to capture movement, expressions and design fun characters whilst telling a story with my illustrations.

In my shop, you’ll find a range of nature-inspired stationery and prints.

I’m also available for bespoke commissions including wedding invites, pet portraits and children’s picture books.

Get in touch if you’d like to chat about a bespoke illustration or project.

Find out more about me and my story

I’m Hannah, a country bumpkin living in rural Norfolk (UK) with my husband and two-year-old boy. I design, print and sell my illustrations all from my home studio (which is a room we call a “study” but is in actual fact a working progress and has instead become a playroom).

I am a self-taught artist who has been drawing and studying art since a very young age. I spent my childhood adoring picture books, drawing animated Disney characters and writing my own stories just so I could illustrate them.

Although art has always been my biggest passion, I ended up getting a degree in mathematics and then working as a musician and music teacher for over 12 years… I spent my twenties prioritising life events and work over my career but now my shop is open and I’m very excited to share my work!
