Taking the love and inspiration of nature and turning into art has been something my sisters and I have been doing since small children. From a young age we have been drawn to symbology, animals and plants. Letting these things weave themselves in and out of our lives and onto paper, or in this case, wood.
While my sisters find their therapy in paint, I find myself myself feeling more relaxation in the smell of wood burning as I create my art. Which is why I decided to fully embrace that form of relaxation back in the Summer of 2021.
I spent a lot of time using different technique's and burning nibs (tip ends) to find out what I could do. Dot burning has become my favourite of all the techniques so far. I have found writing the hardest ability to master but as with anything, it will become easier over time.
I hope to create many more pieces, both small and large scale, in the next coming years. Pieces influenced by Scotland, health and nature. Keep your eyes posted on the shop here to snag some of them.
