About Faye

Born in the UK and living in the North East for most of her life, Faye Fox has spent nearly three decades working in the hair and beauty industry, including 23 years running her own salon. Alongside this, she continues to develop her work as a professional artist.

Throughout her years working closely with people,her work became about far more than beauty. It became a space for connection, conversation, and quiet support.

Those years of listening to people’s stories, witnessing their journeys helped shape her creative voice. Her work blends elements of nature, spirit, strength, and symbolism, often exploring themes of transformation, resilience, and inner power.

Working primarily in oils, her paintings are vibrant, expressive, and intuitive.Through colour, movement, and light, her work celebrates quiet strength, joy, and the wild spirit within us... offering gentle reminders that our light was never meant to be dimmed.

Origional paintings and fine art prints are available through the shop.

Influences and inspiration

The Swing

Original French title: Les hasards heureux de l'escarpolette (“The Happy Accidents of the Swing”)

Artist: Jean‑Honoré Fragonard

Date: around 1767–1768

Style: Rococo

Medium: Oil on canvas

My work explores themes of capability, inner sovereignty, subtle vitality, and transformation through oil paintings that feature animals and human portraits as symbols of these strengths. These figures are grounded, alert, and poised, embodying strength without the need for threat.

I am deeply influenced by the old masters, with a particular affinity for the Rococo era, which inspires my love of light and the whimsical inclusion of decorative roses and peonies.

For me, both my work and my art have always been about the same thing... helping people remember their light.

Each painting is a quiet celebration of strength, joy, and the wild light within us.
