Hannah Bailey (Illustrator)
Hannah Bailey is an award-winning artist and illustrator living and working in Somerset. Hannah's illustrations begin with pencil sketches that are traced and each tiny shape and segment hand-cut into a stencil. She then uses vibrant inks to fill the shapes with texture and colour, digitalises the elements and rearranges them into a final composition. Hannah is inspired by the natural world, folklore and history, specialising in non-fiction children's books as well as editorial and food illustration.
