Hi guys! I’m Penny, a 23-year-old living just west of Brisbane, Australia. I finished up my bachelors degree in Social Science in 2015 and have spent 2016 trying out all sorts of things. At the moment, I’m trying to see if I have what it takes to make it as an illustrator…or something.

I love dogs and the sounds of babies laughing and am subscribed to all of the websites that feature these things. I use way too many exclamation marks and probably not enough commas. I secretly believe that peace is possible. I secretly hope that I can add something good to the world. I am probably very naive but that’s alright. We’ve all got something don’t we?

Motivating Giraffe has changed my life and I credit that to every single one of you reading this right now. Your comments and messages have made me laugh and cry and rejoice in life more often than I can count. Thank you, all of you, for what you’ve given to my life. I keep drawing these pictures so I can maybe give a little bit of that back to you.
