Pyrography is the fancy name for wood-burnin'.
I started playing with the woodburner a couple of years ago, maybe once in a blue moon on a rainy day. Basically, it's a hot pencil... just need the right tips, heat, pressure, and technique. I just have a cheap one but will eventually upgrade to the real thing. Anyway, my goal is to do wildlife and I might try that next on this block. For now this is my doodlings, first try at freehanding trees/landscape. Also trying to simulate woodgrain on the tomahawk handles which actually worked out well. The practice-piece is my indoor splitting block for kindling... maybe 2ft dia X 1ft thick. It's pine and not really sanded well but ok for practice. I'm gonna try and fill it up with burnings eventually when I have time. Fun thing to do when watching baseball or football. Anyone else into Pyrography or wanna share your work? I know Denise is a pro! -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER! Very Happy CP Lifetime Member CP CORE TEAM Referral Code CE213 |
