Penny Collins spent her formative years in the rural farming community of Brimfield, Ohio. Exposed to all cycles of life from an early age, she learned to see beauty in the macabre and appreciate the abundance of life found within the underside of rocks.
Her art evolved from a need to express emotion, experiences, and map out questionable character reflections in general. Her passion for symbolism and archetypes (specifically feminine archetypes) is mirrored in much of her work.
Penny’s illustration and design work has been displayed in the Toledo Museum of Art, garnered numerous awards and recognitions including several international design publications.
Penny currently resides in Toledo, Ohio and operates Studio 566 in the heart of the city.
