Eben Cavanagh Rautenbach - a talented master who specializes in wood burning, he signs his work with a pseudonym LeRoc … This artist creates wonderful paintings using a soldering iron on wooden boards.
The wood burning technique was named pyrographywhich literally means painting with fire. On the site Kulturologiya. RF, we have repeatedly written about the masters who have successfully mastered this technique of arts and crafts. Our regular readers will surely remember the work of Julie Bender and Peter Walker. LeRoc paintings are another striking example of "drawing" on wood.
LeRoc performed his first works, while still very young, using a lighter, nail and pliers. Fortunately, seeing how the child is passionate about the creative process, his own aunt gave him a soldering iron, it is with his help that the artist still creates his paintings.
LeRoc draws inspiration from nature, in his works you can often see the images of plants and animals, He himself is from South Africa, now lives in Scotland. Not far from his house there is a forest where the artist likes to go for a walk. Impressed by the beauty of nature, he creates most of his works.
By the way, not only wood burning is called pyrography. The material can be plywood, cork, paper, cardboard, felt, plastic, leather, fabric and even … old vinyl records. In a word, there are no barriers for real artists!

Wood Art: Mathematical Wood Harmony Cha Jong-Rye
Wood art is a trend that was in vogue back in the era of stone axes. Wood still remains an indispensable material for works of art - and even such non-standard ones as living wooden sculpture.

Pictures made by fire and iron. The Art of Pyrography by Julie Bender
A thin incandescent needle of the pyrograph slides slowly over a wooden plank, leaving a hot scar, a brown imprint of fire, on its smooth, polished surface. It freezes for a second, and again continues on its way, led by the firm hand of an experienced master along the pencil contours drawn in advance by the same hand. Mark by mark, stroke by stroke, soon the plaque will be completely covered with marks burned out by a red-hot needle. And how it will magically turn into an amazing picture from the picture
