She set about the task with intense energy, concentration, and devotion, melding inspiration from painters such as Fra Angelico, Botticelli, and William Blake, as well as ancient Celtic art, into her own personal style. Working only when the natural light was good enough, she took eight years to complete the cycle. Her unusual technique, based on oil paint mixed with beeswax, was quite sound, but in the late 20th century the building fell into disrepair, and the murals suffered. Now they have been expertly restored and can once more be enjoyed in all their glory, as if the world was after all nearing its end.
