Illustration Tutorial: How To Draw an Artwork

Learn how artist Hannah Stelter creates quirky stickers and merchandise with her unique drawing style

In today’s digital age, turning your artwork into products is easier than ever. One artist leading the charge is Hannah Stelter, also known as The Scribble Lady. Specializing in creating fun and quirky designs, Hannah has mastered the art of transforming simple sketches into popular merchandise. In this blog post, we'll explore how she does it, focusing on her latest creation—a cute zombie ghost sticker with the caption “Boo-rains.”

Hannah begins by sketching out her ideas with a glass dip pen, a tool she swears by for its smooth, precise lines. Her loose and flowy line work gives her designs a playful and approachable feel, making them perfect for stickers.

One of Hannah’s latest designs is a zombie ghost character, complete with a tiny brain and her signature dots and squiggles. To add a unique twist, she includes a punny caption, “Boo-rains.” Hannah emphasizes that adding a funny or clever caption can significantly increase the appeal of a sticker, making it a hit with customers.

Stickers are incredibly popular for their versatility and fun factor. People love decorating their water bottles, laptops, and other personal items with cute and quirky designs. Hannah’s art style is a perfect match for this trend, allowing her to connect with her audience through relatable and humorous artwork.

Beyond stickers, Hannah also experiments with turning her designs into other products, such as mugs, patches, t-shirts, and even baby clothes. Each product is carefully chosen to complement her art style and resonate with her audience. For instance, her “You Are My Sunshine” onesie is an adorable way to bring her art into everyday life.

Hannah’s journey from sketchbook to product success is a testament to the power of creativity and entrepreneurship. By staying true to her unique style and incorporating clever elements like puns, she’s created a brand that stands out in a crowded market.
