Two things from this week. A large stone #compass made by the sea, and the start of a #pyrography project: a box for one of my #tarot decks. (Forgot alt text the first time I posted)

I'm going to have to look at #vpype or maybe @toxi 's library for pen plotting and see if I can tie speed and shading together somehow.

A woodburning tool can do half tones and gradients where a laser is essentially pointillist.

A lot more control is possible, I just haven't hacked it together yet. Really excited!

Mixed my #pyrography up with my #tarot cards today. Making some card holders covered in this freehand, intricate pattern work I enjoy doing so much. They take around 4 hours to make. I’ll put them in my shop once I finish a few more & rest my thumb a bit.

Some #pyrography this morning. In the #closeup you can see a natural crack in the #wood. I base the #artwork around these natural features, and go where the #wood wants me to go. Burning #oak smells so good. Campfire, I suppose.

Now off to spend the morning shipping #tarot deck orders. 🙃

Here’s a #throwbackthursday as part of an extended #introduction to what I do. Here’s a nature altar made from mostly chestnut and locust, one of the best magic wand sticks I’ve ever found (in Wales), and two examples of my pyrography. I do a lot of different things. 🙃
