Penny Irvine

I am a professional artist specialising in fibre art but I also draw, paint and create art using pyrography. I live in Thurso on Scotland’s rugged North Coast with my husband, our 2 sons and our Border Collie Luna.

I have a keen interest in social and environmental issues and find my art a great platform for these issues. I have tackled subjects including: plastic pollution, homelessness, abuse, climate change and body positivity.
I want to continue to challenge myself to use these techniques in new ways and create powerful and contemporary art that draws the viewer into the world of the painting and evokes an emotional connection with the subject.
