Renowned both locally and abroad for her ethereal, large-scale works on canvas, Fiona Kennedy has opened a studio /gallery in the heart of Inverloch, a Warehouse space directly behind A’Beckett street (the Main Street in Inverloch). You can meet the artist, experience her workspace and even purchase a piece to adorn your walls at home.
Fiona Kennedy can often be found laying low in her studio amongst paint, sequins and the coast of Inverloch; hiding from the chill of a sunrise surfing session with her son and German Shortaired Pointer pooch River, or weaving parts of herself into her intimate paintings. Art is both an escape and an expression for Fiona, who spreads positivity through her paintings. She offers stories to live by, to dream of, a kind of hope, absorbed by her fans, friends, admirers and collectors avidly.
Each weekend, Fiona’s peacefulness is happily replaced by the hum of hundreds of visitors. They hear about her from a friend of a friend, who’s collected two original pieces; they follow her Facebook posts or have admired her work in a café and found their way to her doorstep. On any given Sunday, Fiona can be found on a maroon velour couch, paintbrush in hand, retelling the stories of her paintings to an eager crowd.
