<h2>What is Pyrography? a.k.a. (Wood Burning Art)</h2>
<p>Pyrography is the art of burning an image onto a surface; usually wood
or leather. The word <B>pyro</B> means fire and <B>graph</B> means
art. Pyrography is a very versatile art form because it gives the artist the
ability to create a vast range of images on any timber or leather surface.
The art of pyrography can be used to create Wood Burning Art or for decorating items
such as wooden spoons, picture frames, doorstops, furniture and so on.</p>
<h2><b>Changes in Pyrography a.k.a. (Wood Burning Art)</b></h2>
<p>The art of pyrography used to be known as pokerwork for the reason that a
red hot <B>poker</B> from the fire was used for burning the leather or wood.
But in these technologically advanced days we use a machine called the pyrography
iron or wood burning tool. This machine is mains powered, very effective and easy
to use. No longer do you need to sit in front of the fire in order to do pyrography.
In fact, with a pyrography iron the artist is able to work continuously, without
having to worry about the <B>poker</B> cooling down. Nor will it overheat
and burn your hand. The effect of pyrography
is a stunning way of using timber as a medium for artistic expression. By
creating an artwork on timber you will be creating a piece that will have
long lasting appeal and is a great gift or decoration for the home.</p>
