Clementine Penner

Illustrator, Graphic Designer, Zinester

Hello! My name is Clementine Penner. I’m an illustrator and designer from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I have a BFA from the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design, majoring in Illustration and minoring in Communication Design. I primarily specialize in book art, pattern design, and illustrated lettering.In my work I explore themes of childhood nostalgia and pop culture from a retrospective point of view. I aim to appeal primarily to children, but also have more nuance to offer for the adults in the room. A lot of what I make has a whimsical and heavily stylized quality, with many bright colors and patterns. I’m also very passionate about academic writing as well as zine-making, and often marry the two to help communicate larger ideas. My main goals with my art are to make people feel joyful, passionate, and reflective.
