Bio – Hannah Charlton Hannah Charlton is an artist living in Washington State. She interned at the Grunewald Guild in Leavenworth, Washington, and attended Whitworth University, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in 2014, studying art, graphic design, and history. She found the ideal intersection of the three areas of study in medieval manuscript illumination. “An illuminated manuscript is a handwritten, hand-decorated page or book. It is ‘illuminated’ in that the text is lit up with decoration.” Hannah was the Creator-in-Residence at The Lab at the North Spokane Public Library in December of 2018.
