Fiona Rowett
Fiona started her career as an artist in 1975. Her work can be seen in many corporate and private collections throughout Southern Africa and private collections overseas.
‘I draw from life experiences and prefer to make suggestions rather than descriptions. Painting is a form of meditation – a state of being, both calm and intense.’
