About
Fiona Foley is the artist behind Pear Shaped Studio, a Cork-based mixed media illustrator known for her vibrant, quirky interpretations of urban life. Specializing in architectural drawing with a whimsical twist, Fiona brings the streets and skyline of Cork City and its surroundings to life through bold colors, playful lines, and a strong sense of character.
With a background in Graphic Design and Illustration from Cork College of FET, Fiona blends technical precision with imaginative flair. Her work often bridges the gap between fine detail and childlike wonder—rooted in structure but bursting with personality.
Fiona’s passion for children’s illustration shines through in her style: light-hearted, nostalgic, and full of storytelling. Whether she’s capturing a familiar street corner or inventing a world of her own, her art invites viewers to see the everyday through a more joyful lens.

Welcome to my collection of illustrated gifts — thoughtfully designed to bring a little joy to every occasion. Whether you're searching for a meaningful card, a unique present, or a small treat just for you, there's something here to brighten someone’s day.
Each item is illustrated and designed by me, then printed in Ireland by small local businesses. Supporting local has been a core part of my business from the very beginning.
