Pyrography Workbook: A Complete Guide to the Art of Woodburning (Fox Chapel Publishing) Step-by-Step Projects and Patterns with Texture, Shading, and Color Techniques for Woodburners Review: Good for beginners - Good for beginners Review: Excellent launchpad for the new pyrographer - Any book subtitled 'A Complete Guide' sets itself up to fall short, but I have to say this is a very thorough look at the materials, tools, and techniques of pyrography. Sue Walters covers a great amount of information with clear text and photos, excellent organization, and (being down under) a much more global look at availability of tools and surfaces than you'll find in other pyro books. She covers wood, leather, paper, gourds, and several other materials, while other authors stick mainly to wood. (Fabric is the only omission I noticed.) Although this book has the work of only one person, the variety of surfaces, styles, and techniques will leave you thinking she has a split personality, in a very good way. The short chapter on texturing includes a chart that concisely explains how 70 textures were created, including the nib used. By texture, I don't mean just the illusion of texture; many include the 3-D advantage that burning can have over drawing. The way she brings eyes to life is fantastic. There must be something that I didn't like. Well, yes, I don't see the degree of outlining in the visible world that she employs in some of her work, but since line drawing is one of the styles that can be done with a hot pen, this book would be incomplete without some outlines, wouldn't it? Also, I would have liked more variety in the examples and patterns, which are almost all wildlife. No landscapes, no buildings, no still life. But forget the quibbles, because you'll have a good foundation to do any subject, after you read this wealth of information. You won't regret buying this book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #249,521 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #54 in Carving Crafts #83 in Folkcrafts #201 in Woodworking Projects (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (2,061) | | Dimensions | 8.5 x 0.37 x 11 inches | | Edition | First Edition | | ISBN-10 | 1565232585 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1565232587 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 144 pages | | Publication date | June 1, 2005 | | Publisher | Fox Chapel Publishing | ## Images ![Pyrography Workbook: A Complete Guide to the Art of Woodburning (Fox Chapel Publishing) Step-by-Step Projects and Patterns with Texture, Shading, and Color Techniques for Woodburners - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81hr7AarPhL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for beginners *by B***B on February 4, 2026* Good for beginners ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent launchpad for the new pyrographer *by K***R on October 30, 2007* Any book subtitled 'A Complete Guide' sets itself up to fall short, but I have to say this is a very thorough look at the materials, tools, and techniques of pyrography.

I found the style of writing easy to read and very understandable. I also plan on trying most of the techniques described within. The book is profusely illustrated with examples of her work and also illustrative pictures. I learned much more than I knew about pyrography beforehand and was delighted to see that it falls well within the fine arts realm as opposed to just another craft. I highly recommend this to any beginner or old hand at pyrography. It includes a fine compilation of resources of further reading and finding materials. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pyrography Workbook: A Complete Guide to the Art of Woodburning (Fox Chapel Publishing) Step-by-Step Projects and Original Patterns for Beginners, Intermediate, and Advanced Woodburners - Pyrography Basics: Techniques and Exercises for Beginners (Design Originals) Patterns for Woodburning with Skill-Building Step-by-Step Instructions and Advice from Lora Irish on Texture and Layering - Landscape Pyrography Techniques & Projects: A Beginner's Guide to Burning by Layer for Beautiful Results (Fox Chapel Publishing) Woodburning Textured, Lifelike Scenes in Layers, with Lora S.
