Kathryn O'Kell
Kathryn’s beautiful hand crafted panels are carved in English lime wood, they are painted, usually with watered down acrylics, and layered and sanded until the desired effect is achieved. Paint is used to emphasize the carved mark and any movement it suggests. Finally, a wax polish is applied to give a soft sheen to the surface of the wood, which also intensifies the depth of colours and brings out the painted highlights.
