PYROGRAPHY (aka Pokerwork)
“writing with fire” from the Greek pur (fir)
and graphos (writing)
The ART of drawing with fire, the
process of burning designs for inspiration or identification has been around
since humans sat around campfires and examples can be found worldwide. From
simple pokers heated by fire, solar burners to modern electric machines, the
mark left by the pyrographer leaves a lasting impression. A rustic and natural
beauty using the sources at hand, an image that can be seen and felt,
Pyrography was very popular in both the
Victorian and Art Deco periods. Now with the modern easy to use tools, the slow
craft is experiencing an innovative revival.
PYROGRAPHY fascinates people, unleash
your burning aspirations and leave your permanent mark.
