Sheena Douglass Crafters Academy | Sheena Douglass IsoInk4 - Pyrography @SheenaDouglass2021 | Uploaded April 2020 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
I wanted to introduce something a bit different during our COVID-19 'Lockdown' that I've named IsoInk (Isolation Inkspiration!)
I thought we'd try out some PYROGRAPHY (Wood burning artwork)
In this demo I use: Razor Tip pyrography machine (a less expensive machine will also suffice if you are new to pyrography)
I am burning on real Pine wood slices that I have hand sanded smooth and the image has been stamped using Pumice stone 'Distress' Ink pad. The stamp I have used is a Sheena Douglass design but of course any stamp will work that fits to the wood slice size.
Sometimes, the finished burning is sufficient and looks great just waxed (3 coats of Briwax or other good furniture real wax)
There are occasions where the image will benefit from adding colour - I have experimented with watercolour pencils to great effect! This is fully covered in IsoInk5 (separate demo video on this channel)
Watch, Enjoy and have a go, its great fun and fab as little gifts for wedding favours, Christenings, birthday gifts, housewarmings and even Christmas decorations!
Love
Sheena xx
