Fiona Hoop
The paintings of Fiona Hoop are collaborative works, which combine the talent and experience
of two professional artists, Michele Woodey and Mary Kennedy.
Michele Woodey graduated with honors in Fine Arts from Brighton School of Arts in England in
1979. While working as an antique and art restorer in London, she continued her education,
with university courses in printmaking and photography.
She eventually settled in Canada. She has had multi-disiplined experience as Joint Head of
Montessori School art programs, guest lecturer, and artist in residence at the Aitlin School of
Art and as Arts Council artist in various graduate school programs. She has held solo exhibits of
her work in England and Canada, and her work is in private collections worldwide.
Mary Kennedy graduated from the Ontario College of Art and Design in 1989. Since then, she
has been the recipient of several grants from the Ontario Arts Council, as well as from the
Sheila Dick Mackay Arts Foundation.
She has juried the University of Toronto Students Exhibits & Grant Awards, been featured on
WTN’s “Bella” Productions, and has appeared in campaigns for Nokia Cellular’s “Connecting
People” series. Her work can be found in many corporate collections, and her current works
are regularly sought after from private collectors across Canada and the U.S.
