HANNAH BONE SOLO EXHIBITION

YOUNG ARTIST RETURNS TO HOME BASE FOR SOLO EXHIBITION – the bowie gallery Totnes October 21 – November 2

Brought up close to Totnes, in Devon, Hannah Bone graduated from Manchester Metropolitan University in 2006 with a first class honours degree.
Her special interests are painting and textiles, but since 2006 she has largely concentrated on painting, with much success.

Hannah is currently based in London where she has a large studio, and in the last year the bowie gallery, which regularly exhibits her work, has signed contracts on her behalf with two international companies, who distribute reproductions worldwide. Some of these are available in the exhibition and are extremely good value.

Hannah’s original work is still very competitively priced.
She has worked in New York in various design studios, also with the sculptor Jilly Sutton, and with the designer Alison Willoughby. She has exhibited at Bristol Affordable Art Fair; Wimbledon open studios; Fosse Fine Art, London and many others.


Her inspiration still comes from her upbringing in the South West and most of her paintings honour the land and seascape of Devon and Cornwall
