Wrendale hugs & kisses
Hannah Dale began Wrendale Designs in 2012 on a crowded kitchen table in Melton Ross, Lincolnshire.
Having a pretty eclectic background (studying art at school before reading Zoology at Cambridge University followed by five years as a stockbroker in London), Hannah found herself married to a Lincolnshire farmer with a young baby and a desperation to find an outlet for her artistic roots.
Inspired by the glorious Lincolnshire countryside, Hannah started to paint hares; loving their expressive faces and wonderful personalities.
After printing these designs as greeting cards based on her own watercolour artwork on a beautifully textured board, she began sharing these with local gift shops and they were an immediate success.
Hannah expanded her repertoire and began painting other animals – the rest as they say is history!
