Fiona Craig studied art in both the UK and Australia and her artworks are represented on large canvases. Painting in oils, and in acrylics, her work reflects inspired visionary concepts of both the built and natural environments.

She has exhibited in the UK, Australia and Spain and currently paints from her studio in central Palma. As an Australian teacher Fiona Craig was periodically located in Aboriginal populated areas of Eastern Australia. In these environments she has learned how the indigenous people, rooted in ancient mythology, had established a highly creative and unique expression. On reading about indigenous cultures around the world she recognises how ancient mythological story corresponds directly to ancient symbologies used in art. She discovered about how myths and beliefs are represented visually, through dance, sound, the gathering of food and the relationship between the earth and the heavens. Guided by these perspectives, in more recent years she has explored areas of medieval symbology used in complex architectural structures of Spain. This, in unison with how construction can represent the earth, sky and nature in many beautifully built forms, she has discovered how indigenous art can contrast starkly to that of her own western culture. Due to her own rich experience of living and travel, Fiona Craig uniquely interprets many natural concepts into the design of large paintings.
