Fiona is an abstract painter who has gained a reputation for creating work which is sophisticated and always has a clear focused objective in mind as she paints.

She has a natural talent and a passion for painting. Her work is bold, full of energy and she uses a brush to tell a story and each painting is full of layers of personal meaning.

Fiona’s abstract artistic practice captures the idea of an individual working in the wider world, while suggesting the business of touching on experience with a wonderful “take“ on the particularity that goes with inclusiveness, that is that we are all different but we are all one.

Fiona is not uncommon among people with Down’s Syndrome in mostly inhabiting her own worlds which we overlap at certain times. Painting or drawing every day places Fiona in her own framework and unites her with most artists for whom the language of making is their primary means of communicating and identifying themselves.

Her work is in the same territory as Howard Hodgkin. Says Fiona “l am a representational painter, not a painter of appearances”. Or George Rodrigue-colourful brushstrokes based on the myths and legends of his culture.

Fiona has exhibited her work in London, New York, Manchester and Hertford.
