Foo Fat is known for her large representational paintings made from her photographs of the microscopic landscape of the forest floor, particularly in the Rocky Mountains, or of the bottoms of tidal pools, that reconcile abstract expressionism and magic realism.

Born Dulcie Dixon in London, England, Foo Fat earned a teaching certificate and bachelor's degree from University of Reading in 1969.
