During the most recent Artist in Residence visit in October, Illustrator Hannah McDonald took the time to talk with our Creative Assistant Gemmie about how the residency has benefited her practice, her fascination with myths and legends and her love of Whitstable.

My second residency visit was at the beginning of March and the days were now starting to get longer. Although there were still grey moments of rain and cold, the light gave a hint to the new season on its way and I was very happy to once again be back in Whitstable, working from The Horsebridge.

I have been in love with Whitstable ever since I first visited many years ago. To me it has the perfect balance of history and creativity, calm and bustle, stormy skies and cosy corners. I have many treasured memories attached to this place, so much so, one of the comics in my book was inspired by my visits here.
