About
Hannah Barratt is an artist and surface pattern designer based in Brighton on England's south coast. She creates hand-painted collections for home décor, wallpaper, fabric, stationery and gifts, using nature as the starting point for her imagery. Watercolour, ink and pencil are layered to build expressive motifs before the artwork is developed into seamless repeats suitable for commercial production. Her designs have been licensed and have also reached customers through Brighton and Hove Artists Open Houses, appearing on bags, tea towels, notebooks, mugs, gift wrap and greeting cards. That product experience sits alongside a service for brands seeking existing collections or exclusive commissioned work. She also discusses changes to scale and colourways, allowing a pattern to be adapted to the needs of a particular product.
