Woodburning Realistic People: Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Perfect Portraits of People (Fox Chapel Publishing) Learn How to Turn a Photo of a Loved One into a Beautiful Pyrography Pattern

Really good book, I'm fairly new to woodburning and have attempted portraits on wood before which turned out okay as I'm an artist who loves sketching people. This book though has opened my eyes to techniques and guidelines that will really help and well worth the money.

Clear detailed instructions on how to convert photos in lots of editing software even for android users and even lists free software with instructions. Explaining lines and fades and walking you through project's to help you learn to creat life like pyro. Great book and if your no artist don't worry it breaks it into easy achievable section's

Very good book very detailed and very informative

é um livro espetacular, e vai aumentar os meu conhecimentos na pirografia sobretudo no realismo onde é meu principal objetivo

Detailed step by step instruction with lots of photos.

What a delightful surprise! I thought the book would provide clear instructions as how to "burn" realistic-looking people BUT this book by Jo Schwartz goes WAY beyond what I expected --its essentially a complete course lucid, incremental, and very, very easy to follow (and to subsequently practice on scrap wood) how to take a photograph and turn it into a gorgeous piece of well "burned" art. Furthermore, Ms. Schwartz is very clear about what kind of equipment and supplies to buy, and gives ample instructions on how to proceed from start to finish. This book is definitely a "keeper", well worth its price, and one that can readily service beginners and experienced artists alike. GREAT PRODUCT.

Ich bin durch Zufall auf dieses Buch gestoßen als ich nach „Anleitungsbüchern“ für Brandmalerei gesucht habe. Im englischsprachigen Bereich bin ich fündig geworden. Ich finde es ist einfügt strukturiertes, verständliches Buch was zum nacharbeiten bzw. ausprobieren einlädt. Ich habe den Kauf nicht bereut.
