I think it's time to catch up!!

Work Work Work !!!

Its been a few months since my last upload and also entering the new phase of pyrography, and its been busy to say the least, I have gone from one piece to the next almost working everyday, some commission work and some sold because of the subjects and some still for sale! My latest piece is at the start here but scroll down to catch up will all of my recent work. 

Wallcreeper
This was a lovely piece to work on, a commission piece for a friend and wallcreeper enthusiast. This time I reverted to painting, and set on a lovely piece of cherry wood.



Wallcreeper piece underway.

The Predator ...finished. After 27 hours of burning I completed this burn, absolutely loved it despite all the hours of tricky detailing.




The start of the PREDATOR burn, this was asked for by a friend but I didn't have any problems with that as it was something I was looking at doing and so glad I did.

Deadpool
This took around 20 or so hours to complete and I learnt how to get different textured effects on this burn', the details were insane at times and I lost myself in so many places!! But it is one of my favourite pieces up to date so far.





The Fog burning with the Dane sign form the ship which is hanging in my garden. I wanted to do this piece because of how much I like the film, great fun.

I find the aircraft burning really fun and different, this F-14 Tomcat on the aircraft carrier with the smoke from the winch mechanism was a challenge to get that effect but I decided to use white paint to give a more surreal look to it, awesome planes...TOP GUN!

The A-10 Thunderbolt. I remember seeing these fly around in Norfolk when I was a kid, and I always thought what a cool plane they were so it was no struggle to want to do this one, very fiddly with the detailing on this but I kept it simple and am very pleased how it came out.

The Exorcist
A iconic scene from a very popular film, if you dont know the film it still works as a scenic portrait.

A favourite burn', the stricken crew from the Elizabeth Dane ship in the cult film The Fog.

A jump back to wildlife with this common seal burn. Lots of small hair detail in this one...and whiskers!

A commission piece of a Vulcan Bomber, this was a start into aircraft burns which I am happy to say will continue. I added the insignia to make it more personal to the owner.

I love this scene from the Force Awakens - Star Wars film of the Tie Fighters, a fun burn where I used paint for the sun to give it a real contrast.

Another block piece burning depicting the Omen films, I am a big fan of these films and loved burning the different poster images from them....makes me want to watch them all again!!

Yours truly working on a sign for a nephew, for his garden pub house! This was burnt on a lovely piece of chestnut.

A dog commission piece for a friend and neighbour of his dearly departed Rottie'.

This was a real joy to work on and was snapped up straight away, before it was even finished, it even got applause from the American Werewolf actor himself David Naughton.....wow!




Yours truly starting the first side of the American Werewolf in London burn'.

This pair of wildlife portraits were for my brother and his wife.


Deaths Head hawkmoth, burn and paint used on this small piece, as you know moths are a big thing with me, always nice to chop and change between subjects.

This is the largest piece I have done so far, a Red Deer stag, I went into this treating it like I was painting and so to create similar detail effects but instead of paint I burnt it in.
