Description
Most authors take a relatively traditional approach to the topic, limited only to pure burning on wooden surfaces. However, the art of pyrography goes much further, and the author pushes the subject into new directions, for example, by incorporating mixed media and other unusual methods and innovative techniques to elevate this craft to an art form. The book is suitable for beginners as well as more advanced pyrographers and also for artists who want to experiment with new ideas and incorporate pyrography into their work. The author begins with an overview of materials, tools, and equipment, and an introduction to basic techniques. She then describes how to transfer a design onto a wooden surface, how to play with the background, and how to finish and protect the work. However, the main contribution of the book is the way to use colors, inks, pigments, resins, and metal leaf to achieve a perfect result.
