Wood, Illustration

The Pyrography artwork are all original pieces which are burnt and shaded with a hot nib In some pieces the grain, figure and any natural faults in the wood are used to form part of the picture. The finished piece is then sealed and waxed. These are sold at galleries, exhibitions and by commission. Portraits and commissioned works are done on Sycamore and can be commissioned to any size within the limitations of the wood. . The wood is all sourced locally when ever possible and from managed woodlands. My inspiration comes from various sources including magazines, my own photography and my love of the natural world.
