Artist Statement
My goal is to create ‘Art That Makes You Feel’.
In every artwork I strive to create an instinctive response
in the viewer. I have an incredibly visceral, almost
physical reaction to colour, meaning that any palette I
choose is essentially a reflection of my own emotional
state in the moment of application.
Whilst I am the master of my palette, the final artwork is
dictated through the coalescing of opposing colours or
hues. In every piece there is restraint. My instinct for
colour combining is directly reflected on my canvas. I
paint emotion and fight the constant urge to fill the
entire substrate. Sometimes I succeed. Negative space
features heavily in many of my finished pieces.
My intention is to create beauty that intrigues and can
be interpreted in a multitude of ways.

Artist Biography
Contemporary abstract artist Fiona Debell specializes in
high-end, large scale fine art.
Bold and avant-garde, Fiona’s work is defined by her
uncommon use of colour, instinctive application and prolific
creative output.
Inspired by artists such as Rothko and Frankenthaler, her first
visit to the Tate Modern Rothko Room as an 18 year old
created such a strong emotional response she became
determined to create expressive, emotive art, in the hope
that one day she too would evoke such a feeling in others. It
has happened many times over the years.
Self taught, over the past two decades Fiona has developed
an encyclopedic understanding of paint, product and
application, culminating in her current body of work.
Creating horizontally, often utilizing the floor of her studio,
allows her to attain a 360 degree perspective, moving
around each piece as it develops. When she is satisfied that
the art will bring about a strong reaction in the viewer she
knows it is complete.
Fiona's art can be found in collections across the world,
including Switzerland, the United States, Australia, France,
the U.K., Canada and beyond. With collectors often investing
in several pieces at one time. Her work is said to create ‘a
unique and uplifting atmosphere'.

Artist Biography Continued...
Born in England, Fiona emigrated to Canada in 2014. As a
creator experiencing an entirely new life, her artistic journey
reflects her everyday experiences and emotions. Her style
has evolved over the past 5 years and the ‘COVID Effect’ has
had a pronounced impact on her creative decisions. Her
collections move through serenity and ephemeral quiet to
loud, bright hopefulness and joy.
Fiona can be found daily in her Toronto studio exploring her
art practice.
