Pyrography, coming from the Greek words “Pyr”, meaning fire, and “Grapho”, meaning writing, is the fine art of burning images onto wood. This process has many advantages over other methods of depicting images, in that it gives a very strong sense of depth. It allows a great range of natural tones and shades to be achieved - beautiful subtle effects can create a picture in sepia tones, or strong dark strokes can make a bold, dramatic design.
