{"product_id":"the-innovative-artist-the-art-of-pyrography","title":"The Innovative Artist: The Art of Pyrography","description":"\u003cp\u003ePyrography is the art of burning a design into wood using a heated metallic point.\nMost books on the market take a fairly traditional approach to the subject, limited to using pure burning onto a range of wooden surfaces. The Art of Pyrography goes far beyond this. Cherry Ferris takes the subject to new heights, incorporating mixed media, unusual supports and innovative techniques to elevate the craft to an artform.\nThe book is suitable for beginners as well as more advanced pyrographers, and is well-suited to artists from other media who want to experiment with new ideas and incorporate pyrography into their practice. Pyrography machines are easily obtainable from online suppliers and major craft stores. \nThe Art of Pyrography begins with an overview and history of the subject, a tools and equipment section, an introduction to the basic techniques and information on surfaces that you can safely burn. The book moves onto how to transfer designs onto surfaces and incorporate a mixed media approach by looking at shading techniques, introducing colour into your work, playing with backgrounds and how to finish, protect and display your finished pieces. Four shorter mini burns complement ten longer step-by-step projects that walk the reader through the techniques and materials used. A troubleshooting and safety section is also included, making this a one-stop shop to get all your pyrography questions answered.\nChapters include:\n\nColour: Incorporating coloured pencils, paint, and inks\nUsing resin to finish your work which results in a beautiful glass-like finish\nUsing gold leaf to add a touch of magic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn stock at bradburyART Belfast.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Search Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55561274425720,"sku":"9781782219385","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0528\/7388\/7910\/files\/9781782219385.jpg?v=1779117878","url":"https:\/\/www.bradburyart.co.uk\/products\/the-innovative-artist-the-art-of-pyrography","provider":"Bradbury Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
