Fiona Omeenyo was born in August 1981. She is from Lockhart River Queensland Australia. She is one of the original Lockhart River Art Gang members in the East Coast of Cape York in the far North Queensland. Fiona paints ancestral spirits and themes her other works on the parrot sisters story from her country. She developed her painting skills during the formative years of Lockhart River’s arts emergence in the 90’s and has established a solid footprint within Australia and the International art space specific to Indigenous Australian Art. Fiona embraces a semi-figurative style of painting to represent the mythic ancestral figures, almost as though carved into the background layers of paint. Her work has been widely exhibited in Australian galleries since winning her first art award in 2001.
