going to as many charity shops as possible, gathering new
patterns. u SB Do you collect anything? Hannah: I love
collecting bits and pieces from charity shops and recreating
old pieces into new ones. Vintage items that I can strip down
and put my own stamp on (at the minute I’m collecting white
tea pots so I can digitally transfer my own patterns to create
my own ceramic collection). u SB Do you keep a scrapbook?
Hannah: I always keep a small sketch book wherever I go in my
bag so I can jot down ideas if something inspires me! I’m always
doodling everywhere I go! u SB What are your interests outside
of illustration? Hannah: Listening to music, walking the Gower
coastline and visiting inspiring cultural places such as Morocco,
Gambia and Turkey. I love spending time with friends chilling on
the beach. u SB What would be your dream job or commission?
Hannah: Illustrating CD covers for an artist that I love such as
Zero 7. u SB If you could visit anywhere in the world, where
would you go? Hannah: India / Asia and I’ve just returned from
travelling around Morocco for a month which has given me great
inspiration for future projects as I am so inspired by detail.
