About

Penny Louise is a self-taught, Melbourne based visual artist, finding peace in creating. Penny’s art is vibrant, subtle and full of life as she captures the characters and colours of the Australian bush. From penguins and pelicans in party hats to majestic quiet koalas and proud cockatoos, Penny’s art sparks joy, surprise and the slow smiles of memory.

Constantly inspired by the world around her. You might find her with camera in hand, gum leaves in her pockets and her long dog Walter at her feet, wandering the bush dreaming of the next time she has her pencil in hand. At home, likely on the kitchen bench, Penny uses watercolour, mixed media and digital pencil to draw characters from the page. Her paintings are quiet yet bursting with personality. They are fun, original, honest and capture the vibrancy of life.
