Fiona Concannon, BA Hons, MFA, is an artist from Spiddal, Co. Galway. She has studied Fine Art Painting in a variety of institutions, including – Limerick School of Art and Design, GMIT, Crawford College of Art and Design, University of Ulster, and the NCAD.
Colour has always been an integral part of Fiona’s art practice, it is the process of painting that captivates and inspires her – the building up of layers of colour, creating a sense of depth, warmth and mystery.
She is currently working on a series of Original Watercolour Paintings and Limited Edition Giclée Prints, which capture the beauty of her surroundings in the West of Ireland. Fiona conveys a warm and familiar sense of place in her paintings. It is Fiona’s fondness for the people of the West of Ireland, their customs, language and their habitations that she conveys in her work.
In addition to her landscapes and abstract works, Fiona has been commissioned to paint in Ireland and internationally to do unique, privately commissioned pieces for a range of clients.
