The Art of Pyrography
Artist: Michael O'Shields
AS SEEN ON THE RED CARPET OF THE WORLD PREMIER OF STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI AND UNDER THE HELMET DOCUMENTARY ON DISNEY PLUS!! Please follow me on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter! I have combined my love of art and pop/geek culture to create unique, hand made, and very geeky works of pyro-graphic art.
What is Pyrography? Pyrography is the art of burning images into wood. Art is all hand burned and takes on average, depending on the size, 5 to 7 days to complete each piece. I do accept commission work, please feel free to contact me with any questions or just want to chat! All the prints and originals that are available. Thanks!
