I predominantly use pine wood for my wood burns, but I hear many people prefer basswood, so I wanted to inquire anout what wood types are better suited for different kinds of jobs.
I always feel really inconsistent with pine, and I worder if it’s the wood or just the fact that I’ve only just started burning 6 months ago
I made this a few months ago as a surprise for a family member. I believe at the time it was my 4th piece. Materials are wood and metal leaf.
Made this for my bf for Christmas, my first attempt at a portrait style of art and very first time trying to shade with the equipment I have ! Everyone in this sub is so talented, absolutely goals!
Found this piece of wood super cheap at goodwill! The grain was kind of hard to burn over but I think this still came out OK!
