Artist of the month

May’s Artist of the Month

Caryl Oliver is an emerging crafter immersed the world of wood and resin artistry, proving that it’s never too late to explore your creative side.

 “I love the challenge of creating a story with interesting wood and tricky resin,” Caryl shares. Each piece she creates is more than just an object; it’s a narrative, a blend of textures and colours that invites you to pause and appreciate the beauty of nature intertwined with art.

Her work is a unique blend of natural hollow logs, wood, bark and vibrant resins, transforming everyday materials into functional or decorative pieces of art. From coasters to charcuterie boards to woodland scenes — each tells a story.  It’s this thoughtful approach that makes her work truly special.

To see Caryl’s work, visit the Information Centre throughout April from 9.00am to 4.00pm during weekdays and 9.30am to 1.00pm on Saturdays.
