Ranarh's Art Blog

At the start of the year I took some days off for crafting. This time I choose making paperbeads. I have a box full of inspirational papers that came it very handy, and I'm sure these will be helpful for reference images for painting sometime. Some resources I used: IFX wall calendar; gift wrapping paper; flyers from a butterfly park, and a horror themepark; advertisements for travel agencies; an artists' newspaper; coloured carton; envelopes; coin rolling paper; greeting cards; test prints. I haven't counted, but they are many.

These are pyrographies I made for a furniture project. Each side is 10 × 4,5cm with 45° corners, making a total of about 10 × 18cm. These are (in case I horribly failed depicting them) cats, ravens, a chameleon, and a kraken. This was pretty much my first attempt at pyrography since eigth grade, and I was a bit rushed, so there's not much detail to look at, but I'm happy with them nonetheless.
