In this class you will create your own wood burned art that you can use or give as a gift. While we will be creating a specific project, the skills you learn and practice in this class can be applied to other pyrography projects.

Pyrography is a mindful art form. It takes time, focus, while you revel in the freedom of letting go of perfectionism. I encourage you to draw your own design, or find something that inspires you.

Most of all I hope that you have fun!

In this class you will learn:

Wood Burning Safety: always important with a medium that has some inherent risks
