Born and raised in Torquay, Fiona has always engaged with the outstanding beauty of the Torbay coastline and surrounding areas which are part of the English Riviera UNESCO Global Geopark. Having returned to live in the region much of her leisure time is spent on or by the waters that have shaped the landscape and heritage of the three towns, and it is from here that Fiona takes much of her inspiration.
