Welcome

Welcome to Heirloom Pyrography Portraits. This site is dedicated to the preservation of the ancient art of pyrography (wood burning) and it's application to portraits of the human face exclusively. In an age of lasers and computer generated art, the real item is becoming scarce and less affordable. The artist hopes you will spend a few minutes to enlarge each of the gallery thumbnails to more fully appreciate the tremendous detail and beauty of each piece. The gallery selections include pieces offered for sale as well as completed custom commissions for viewing. They are illustrative of what you can expect on your own custom portrait, whether family member or famous personality.
