About the Illustrator

Pene Chadwick is a Graphic Designer who has worked in the design and print industry for over 20 years. After working in studios and printers in Sydney and London, Pene returned home in 2014 to live on the family property where she experiences the best of both worlds of living a rural lifestyle with her Irish husband and her beloved kelpie, helping out on the family farm and running her little studio, Pencil Pop Creative Graphic Design, in Running Stream, NSW. After working for a variety of clients in London, she rediscovered her passion for watercolour when a client asked for their new brand to incorporate a loose watercolour element.

This ignited her passion and obsession with all things watercolour, putting paint to paper rather using a computer, sparked a new creative direction for her and has developed her own little quirky loose watercolour style which she uses in design projects for clients, product illustrations, bespoke wedding stationery suites and commissioned pet portraits. When her little sister P.E. Woods asked her to illustrate her book, Rosie-May Blue, it was not only an honour to work with her sister and help bring her story to life, but most definitely a dream project for her.
