U3A Casey – Pyrographic Art
Calling all seniors to try this unique craft. Also known as Woodburning Art, Pokerwork or Wood Burning, this artistic craft can be done on most things from wood, leather, cork to canvas.
Designs can be burnt onto a wide range of practical items, such as coasters, trays, cheese boards, boxes, house signs, key ring tags, framed pictures, to name a few.
In the Pyrography Art class each member selects their own projects and works at their own pace, often exploring various techniques, which can include line art, shading and
colouring of designs. If you’d like to give Pyrographic Art a try, then come along. It’s easy to do, it’s creative and it’s practical and versatile. Wood is provided for free and a pyrography tool is available for use during the first session. After your first try out, U3A membership is $30 (July to Dec) to continue with Pyrographic Art, or to take part in any of our other 75 classes.
