Hanna Muller was born in northern parts of Sweden. She has been drawing since she was just a little girl. She was taught by her father and grandfather, not long after that, her drawings became an identity of her, and still until now she never considered herself as an illustrator. She finally started a blog where she shows all of her artworks to her friends and public. After more and more people discovered her blog, she started getting a lot of good feedback and compliment.
She is very talented, all of her artworks have a simplistic life-like style and she uses aquarelle and ink to create an effect in her drawings. Some of her drawings she doesn't use color and the skin tone, she achieved it through shading. Sometimes she uses color on her drawing only for some parts like lips, fingernails, or a single garment. The facial expressions on most of all her drawings are blank and all the poses are always very unique, it is different from any other
illustrator which considered as her identity. Also most of her works are more about close-up in faces. She always draws something based on the real model, so the faces also look real and so alive. The way she puts the color in every drawing seems so colorful and playful. She also quite often uses properties such as cigarette, coffee cup, pair of glasses, and cat. Her drawing is bold but yet still simple and beautiful with the face as the main focus. Her pale aquarelle paintings reflect the cool, barren landscape of the northern parts of Sweden she derives from. She has a very beautiful detail and all her illustrations are striking.
Her work was exhibited once in London at the exhibition Go Figure New Fashion Illustration in 2012.
