About Penny

Thank you for visiting my corner of the internet! 

I am Penny, an abstract and oil paint artist residing in Orange County, California.

In college I pursued a degree in History and a minor in Fine Arts. After a career in teaching and working in the nonprofit sector, I am now a full-time mom of two littles, and I've embarked on a new chapter as a fine artist.

My story is one you may resonate with. The re-spark of my creative journey came during the initial COVID lockdown. It was a time to slow down, reconnect with nature, and appreciate the small but beautiful things in life, as chaos surrounded us in the world. My husband took up surfing and trips to the beach are now engrained in our weekly schedule. I love how you never arrive at the same beach twice - the waves, the landscape, and the vibe ebbs and flows each new day. The textures of the waves crashing against the rocks, the rocks in sunlight, and the streams flowing back into the ocean have been an inspiration to me.

I aim to capture a slice of nature's essence and the serenity it offers when you step into the great outdoors. Bring a sense of nature into your home with these textured and tonal paintings!
