Daniel Wright's enthusiasm for his subject is beautifully captured in a sequence of clear, easy-to-follow step-by-step photographs and unusual projects. Taking his inspiration from pen and ink, engraving and watercolour techniques, he demonstrates many exciting methods and traditional ways of working, creating landscapes, trees, flowers, animals and buildings. Information is include on the types of wood to use, how to prepare surfaces, working with the grain and enhancing designs. He goes on to illustrate shading and faux marquetry, and there's a section on using photographs and sketches to produce unique designs.
Daniel's individual, whimsical style is the perfect complement to the objects he decorates: bowls, boxes, plates, frames, panels, a chess set, a nursery stool, and more. He also loves decorating old wooden objects, working patterns, pictures and motifs into the worn textured surfaces. This book will inspire, entertain and instruct you, whether you are a complete beginner, or an experienced pyrographer.

Daniel Wright has had a passion for woodburning since purchasing his first machine at the age of eleven, and at just twelve years old began selling pieces through craft fairs and art galleries. After studying Art History at the University of Kent, he obtained a post-graduate certificate in art education and combined part-time teaching with pyrography, running workshops and teaching on the subject. After publishing Introduction to Pyrography in 2004, Daniel pursued his current career as a Painting Specialist and Auctioneer and continues to produce pyrography designs today, influenced by his love of antiques and art-and-craft history. In his spare time, he plays flugelhorn in a championship-standard brass band and is a keen football supporter.
Daniel lives in Suffolk, UK with his partner Georgie and two children, Milo and Hazel.
