Penny Brandon grew up in Des Plaines, Illinois, and began drawing and painting horses as a youngster. After moving to Sarasota, Florida, she found herself surrounded by the tropical beauty of nature and wildlife. This scenery rekindled her interest in art and she began painting birds, landscapes and buildings unique to the area and the Caribbean.
Originally self-taught, Penny refined her techniques under the guidance of Max Muller at the Ringling School of Art and Design. She specializes in watercolors emphasizing depth of color, a tropical style, and floral subjects.
The stylized paintings Penny has created reflect a desire to share the joy of the natural beauty she feels so fortunate to find all around her. In each painting, she tries to bring the viewer a little closer to that beauty.
Penny’s artwork has been shown in art galleries, home décor shops, and restaurants. Her painting entitled “Blue Heron” was featured in June 2007 on Gulf Coast Living magazine’s front cover. She has been a member of the Sarasota Art Center and the Venice Art Center.
