Re: Dogs in pyrography...

Hi Pogs,
the ear looks okay. I would google a few references though, it might need a bit of a sharper corner/fold at the top. But be careful, as once you burn it in you will be stuck with it.
You are doing a great job, with a difficult medium!

Re: Hidden Heart

Well, I didn't realize you weren't holding workshops there at this time
but Mike's videos fill the gap admirably. It isn't quite the same as one on one with him, but he will always help here on the forum!

Re: Cat Portrait in Progress

Nicely done k! Mike's suggestions really helped resolve your issues - not that they were big ones to begin with! Just refinements to an already successful work.
I bet the client was stoked! (Oz slang for chuffed, pleased, over the moon)>

Re: Paper

Yes, Fabriano is a tad spongy. The 'Artistico Bright White' is the best and slickest, but it still is somewhat soft. Make sure when you are using it that you have nothing under it (no other pages from a pad or extra paper). A hard surface beneath can help. Actually, I have progressed to a slightly s...
