Hello there, my name is Pannie.

​

I have created this website to share all my creativity. The reason is that when I was a little girl, I loved to spend time with my grandmother, who loved to create stuff and teach me how to make it. I gained a lot of skills from her, such as cooking, drawing, and sewing skills. I always wanted to join the art and design classes, which I really love and enjoy the most. However, when I graduated from high school and it was time to go to the university, my mother wanted me to do a degree in Financial Management as she thought this would provide me with a good career and income. So that is what I did.

When I graduated from university, I  got a job in a hospital as a financial assistant, taking payments from patients and managing their deposits. I continued to draw, but it wasn’t like before, and it was not my dream. Until I met my husband, who is very supportive, he knew that I loved to create things. Then one day, to my surprise, he sat down with me, and went through all the research he had done, and gave me a huge list of degrees he had found on Anglia Ruskin University's website. I was so happy and excited. 

The Children's Book Illustration MA really appeals to me, I feel like it’s fulfilling my original dream, which I told my grandmother and school class. I believe the guidance and support this course offers will really help me develop my skills, and I hope maybe one day I can follow in the footsteps of many of the famous alumni who have attended Anglia Ruskin.During my studies, I gained a tonne of new knowledge and skills that all my tutors provided.

After graduating, I have been trying to create more content using my own styles and techniques, which I hope will be published and well-known in the future.

Thank you for reading my statement.
