It's good to have you back here, Artur.

Sometimes a break away from art does you good. Other times, just creating without a purpose or deadline helps too.

And pyrography is like graphite pencil - no layers with different drying times, no colours to mix... just immediate results from a simple application. Something you can pick up and put down at leisure.

After working all those hours of overtime, I think you're due for a leisurely art-filled break.

Thank you Mike!
All you saying is very true...

And this is the feather I've done the next day ...

Hi Arthur. It’s so nice to see your beautiful artwork again. I love the softness of the feather. It looks like there’s a texture there, possibly a primed canvas? I didn’t know you could do pyrography on painted surfaces, but then I don’t know much about it.

I have to agree with Laurene. Given the unforgiving nature of the medium, and that I imagined subtlety would be hard to produce... this is undeniably a soft feather that's floated down onto your paper. How you do that, I've no idea... but it's impressive!

I know you're still having access problems, but I hope you get that sorted out soon, because we're missing you!

Hi dear friends.
Thank you again for your keen compliments.
Laurene, Mike - thank you!

Mike - it's my first try to write in here from different device after switching to other mobile phone...
I've been transferring over this device everything - literally!
I'm about to post it (fingers crossed).

It's textured paper mimicking the canvas - so you very right Laurene!
You can burn on most of the surfaces, like a leather, canvas, etc...
Anything that can get hurt by hot tip really

*For so long I was blocked off from posting to this forum, this is first time my post is getting through Laurene.
Mike's aware, as he tried his best LITERALLY! to sort it out, but nothing was working...
So forgive me for late reply, but my previous replies (many of them!) weren't getting through the blockade...

Wonderful to see you managed to get back to us!

It occurred to me that we could set up a second account for you (different IP and email address) but it looks as though that might not be necessary. Let's hope so.

So far so good dear Mike!
I have posted new item moment's ago, and I'm NOT BLOCKED (lol) ...
I hope the IP issue won't happen anymore...
