During her Master of Arts degree studies, Katherine explored and practiced the painting techniques of many great masters throughout art history, from 15^th century Leonardo da Vinci to modern impressionists.

Although Katherine is adept at using various techniques and painting in virtually any style, she chooses a multi-layered oil painting approach for her portrait work.

The multi-layered oil painting technique, perfected by famous masters like Leonardo da Vinci and Rembrandt in their iconic portraits, involves layering multiple semi-transparent coats of paint.

This technique greatly enhances the level of detail and precision, making it ideal for capturing the nuances of detailed portraiture.

In addition to painting, Katherine specializes in painting restoration and conservation.
