After finishing at University, Hannaford concentrated on painting. She specializes in portraiture, landscapes and still life painting.{{cite web|last1=Llewellyn |first1=Jane |title=Profile: Tsering Hannaford |url=http://www.adelaidereview.com.au/arts/article/profile-tsering-hannaford |publisher=Adelaidereview.com.au |accessdate=18 March 2015 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150402185632/http://www.adelaidereview.com.au/arts/article/profile-tsering-hannaford |archivedate=2 April 2015 }} She became a full time artist in 2012.
