Court O’Reilly, a self-taught Canadian artist, has been captivating the art world with her unique wood etchings since 2016. Her journey began with a simple day off work, leading to an immersive six-hour session with wood, tools, and coffee, resulting in an instant passion for woodburning. O’Reilly’s artistry is deeply rooted in nature, often featuring realistic animal and people portraits, architectural designs, and landscapes.
She sources kiln-dried wood slabs sustainably, transforming them into canvases for her intricate woodburning commissions, which have reached over 400 pieces shipped worldwide.
