Description
This is one stunning and dramatic box! It's quite large--7" x 3.5" x 4" (17.78 x 8.89 x 10.16 cm).The design is a mixture of interconnecting clockwork gears and Victorian-era flourishes. The background is a smokey brown (created by carefully hand-burning the wood), giving the look of aged leather or scorched parchment.
Pyrography on paulownia
Pen: Optima 1
About the Process:
Each piece is first hand-drawn with pencil (brain to hand to wood). Reference photos may be used, but all designs are my own original artwork.
Then guidelines are hand-burned using a pyrography pen, and all pencil marks are erased and sanded clean.
The piece is finished entirely with pyrography ( hand-burned using a hot pen, similar to a soldering iron).
No computers are used to generate images. No lasers are used to create designs. No routers are utilized to create depth. Very occasionally, I will add bright accent tints of purple, blue, green, or red with acrylic paint; however, all non-chromatic shades are accomplished with burning, and not paints or stains.
