Welcome to The Woodburner!
I would like to welcome you to The Woodburner - featuring works by pyrographic artists from around the world!
If you have been looking for a place to learn the art of pyrography (aka woodburning) without being intimidated, then you have come to the right place!! The people here are only interested in helping you become a better burner, a better pyrographer.
There are several ways to learn this wonderful artform. First and foremost, you can't learn it if you don't try! Once you have started, you can post your burnings here in the Gallery, or create a Photo Album of your own.
Another method you must employ to learn this artform, or anything else, is to study the work of those whom you feel are quite good. If you see someone who does a technique in a manner that you find interesting, then you must study the technique to determine how it was done. You may also ask that person how they applied that particular technique in that situation. You can approach them through the forums, through private messages, or chat if you find them online. Everyone here is more than willing to assist you so that you improve and enjoy burning!
This website has been fortunate over the years to have members who are quite accomplished in an assortment of techniques in pyrography. They provide ample examples from which you can learn. Their burns will also show you what is possible in pyrography - it is absolutely amazing what someone can do with a hot iron and a piece of wood, leather, or paper (or whatever else will take a burn).

ArtofFire writes What is a GOW? A Gathering of Woodcarvers where there are over 35 seminars for all levels of carving.
Where is it going to be? At The Carving Shop in Somonauk, IL (address on the Directions page on the website below), with classes under a Big Top tent (except pyrography which will be indoors).
When is it going to be? Campers come in on Monday, September 17, classes begin on the 18th, and go through Friday, the 21st. Campers usally start leaving on Saturday the 22rd.
When’s it going to start? We’ll begin about 6 PM on Monday with a Social (Margarita Seminar), where there will be snacks and drinks, while the instructors introduce themselves and give information about their seminars.
Tell us more about the Seminars. There will be about 15 instructors teaching about 35 seminars on woodcarving. Many of these seminars are directed toward the beginner carver. They will include carving birds, decoys, relief, in-the-round, busts, bark carving, pyrography, caricature carving, sharpening and much more. The seminars run from 9am to 5pm with an hour off for lunch; Tuesday through Friday. Some seminars are half-day ($5 plus material), some full day ($10 plus material) and some are more than one day. All payment for seminars go to the instructors to help cover expenses
