Welcome to my Pyrographic Art Gallery

 

Pyrography is the technique of using heat / fire to create art. "Pyro" means fire and "graph" means art in Greek. This form of art was originally called poker art. It is also known as wood burning.


Pyrography is very versatile because it can create designs on wood, leather, paper, gourds, and other mediums, using heated tools that burn away some of the surface. Every stroke is drawn entirely by hand making each piece of art original and unique.
