Firewriting Pyrographic Art by LynnD

Pyrography, AKA Woodburning is an art medium overshadowed by other more traditional mediums. Here is a small sampling of my pyrographic artwork. Thanks!

Hi Jk, thanks for yoyur comments. i like alderwood to burn on, it has a nice grain which i like to incorporate I haven't tried burning on balsa wood, but I dont see why not? I burn on just about anything at least once LOL goodluck, and have fun, it's a great medium, i just love it!

Lynn--your woodburning and paint combinations have inspired me to try that method in my artwork--of course it's not as beautiful as yours. Do you frame some of your work or burn a frame right into the wood and paint it to look like a frame? Thanks!

hi, thanks for your comments! I do frame some, and on the plaques, i just burn the sides to look like a frame. i also make frames of hand patina'd copper, it looks really nice

hallooo, first of all your job is exceptional... and could you please expain me a little bit what tagua is, and how you can do firewriting on paper? Thanks!

[lynndart]

thanks! tagua nuts are also known as palm ivory, a renewable resource from the south american rainforests. they are excellent to burn on! Pyro on paper is very easy, you just have to fool with the temp to see how hot you can burn. I usuallly burn on cold press watercolor paper.. it works great, and you can burn at a fairly high temp
