25.01.2022 After many years of feeling uncomfortable with the way my works seemed to be ‘lost-in-translation’ during the replication/printing process, I felt the need to create my own version. A series that felt authentic, raw yet delicate, transparent and layered. Works on paper that are entirely original yet affordable. Particularly for young art collectors like myself. This is where my hand-painted edition series stemmed from. ... With a subtle nod to my formative years studying printmaking, I have returned to works on paper. Utilising the same transparency and layering techniques retrospective of where my work first began. To learn more about my unique process and view my first edition series visit my website (link in bio). Photograph @suziappel_photo #hannahnowlan #unwavering #handpaintededition
24.01.2022 No mans land Portalis references how the landscape recovers and rebirths but also how we withdraw and return within for survival. To learn more and view the catalogue follow the link in my bio. #hannahnowlan #portalis #nomansland
23.01.2022 Taking on a new visual direction, Portalis is imbued with rich symbolism. Continuing to explore the same themes long steeped within my practice; of afterlife and myth. Visit my website to learn more. Photograph in the studio by @suziappel_photo @thedesignfiles #hannahnowlan #portalis

20.01.2022 Portalis Excerpt from @thedesignfiles Those who know Hannahs previous work will notice a distinct shift in style for this exhibition of 15 stunning paintings, and thats because she created these pieces in the first half 2020. They represent the period she spent processing the devastating bushfires, and then the onset of the pandemic that came soon after. These optimistic works offer a passage to regeneration, and a tunnel to the future when someday all of this will be ov...er!

20.01.2022 The studio has been a much needed space for reflection, contemplation and creation during this strange time. This work entitled Interior listening traverses ember washed grounds enclosed within a hermit shell crevassesymbolic of interior listening and a sentiment of our sheltered interiors. I had the pleasure of speaking with @sallytabs about creating and keeping inspired during lockdown.

19.01.2022 Upholding a sense of mysticism is an important part of my work. Viewers will often describe to me, what they see, feel or find hidden within my work; it usually sounds like something out of strand and vivid dream. Mythical creatures, symbolism, stories, memories and histories are embedded within my work; through a process that allows me to find meaning in the world around me. ‘Centaur’ Unwavering 01 collection. ... Oil on French cotton rag paper, Raw Framed in Tasmanian Blackwood. Visit my website to pre-order individual works or sets with delivery in time for the holidays.

13.01.2022 Introducing, ‘Unwavering’ 01 Unbridled by comparison, time constraints or preconceived rules and unlike an edition series I have seen before.

11.01.2022 Layers of translucent oil paints create a mix between matte and glossy surfaces. They catch the light and change in tone depending on the time of day. All grounded by the raw deckled edge and soft felt-like cotton rag paper. Each limited edition artwork is hand-painted, signed, embossed and numbered by the artist, with accompanying Certificate of Authenticity. Given the original hand-painted nature of this series, your artwork will vary slightly from the ones pictured here.... That's the beauty of it.

08.01.2022 Using paints individually mixed to produce the small run of works, Unwavering 01 is the result of an effort to create original art that is still affordable. The series consists of four brand new works titled The Sea Wolves, Centaur, Sea Urchin and Raven Sun, each of which stay true to the exploration of mystical symbology and ancient natural lore that makes up Hannah’s recognisable style. Thank you for this beautiful write-up on TDF today @thedesignfiles @sallytabs xx... Artworks available for pre-order, with delivery before the holidays. Visit my website to discover the collection.

07.01.2022 The hermit shell that inspired the entire Portalis body of work. A visual representation of incandescent embers in the skythe shell was lucent with mystery and checkered in orange and the blue. Then a metaphor of withdrawal and retreatthe shell became a sentiment of our sheltered interiors, of hibernation, where we would return within to survive.

03.01.2022 ‘Sea Urchin’ Unwavering 01 Oil on French Cotton Rag Paper, Raw Framed in-house from Tasmanian Blackwood with our signature corner joinery. For the last 5 of my practice, I’ve been framing my works on paper without glass/perspex in a shadow box frame, similar to how works on canvas are framed. ... This is because I believe my original artworks look better framed without reflections and glare interrupting the artwork's subtle viewing qualities, colours and layering. To keep your artwork safe, it’s deep-set into the frame and float mounted with archival materials. We believe, our raw framing methods offer the best viewing experience. Pre-order now from my studio stockroom, unframed or framed options available. #hannahnowlan #seaurchin #unwavering
