—MEET THE ARTIST
Hey, I'm Penny
I’m Penny Fournier, an illustrator and comic artist specializing in comics, editorial illustration, book covers and narrative work.
Originally from Paris, I earned my BFA from the School of Visual Arts and my MFA in Illustration from the Fashion Institute of Technology. My work blends humor, storytelling, and real-life experiences to explore everyday moments, personal reflections, women’s rights, mental health, and the unexpected sides of creative life.
Now, I’m sharing my process in an upcoming course designed to help artists build confidence, strengthen their visual storytelling, and create work that feels personal and meaningful.Â
