Penny is a textile artist with an obsession with plants and their natural dyes. Having lived in Walpole for many years, her art is a reflection of her surroundings - the forests and her garden.

She has spent years developing ways of transferring the dyes in local botanicals on to paper and fabrics. Her style of contact printing allows hidden colours and forms to emerge. Sometimes the surprise is the colour revealed, sometimes it is the intricacies of the veins in the leaves.

Penny has exhibited in a number of group shows, workshops including the Albany Summer School at Vancouver Arts Centre and artist in residence at Aspects Gallery in Kings Park Botanical Garden. Her work is also regularly stocked by the Art Gallery of WA Shop, Fremantle Arts Centre, Aspects Gallery, Art Gallery of Ballarat, Melbourne Botanical Gardens and Petrichor Gallery.
