Burning on wood, as an art form, is known to mankind since ancient Egyptian times. They were also successfully used in some African tribes. People have long fascinated and inspired the power of fire. Pyrography, in the meaning of the word itself, is defined as a way of drawing fire on wood or skin. Julia Bender (Julie Bender) chose this method as a way of expressing her gratitude to the world of wildlife.
As early as the end of the XIX century, architect Alfred Smart invented a method of intermediate heating, which allowed creating halftones and ultra-thin lines. But only Julia Bender was able to clearly demonstrate with her skill how much they can thin out. All her works are perceived as drawings, the smallest details of which build reflections in the eyes of animals. Of course, the modern pyrographic tool has become much more perfect. Today it does not look like an ordinary soldering iron, and a special device adjusts the temperature so precisely that the palette of halftones and shades becomes almost inexhaustible.
Julia Bender managed to create her own style in pyrography. And it's not just the microscopic details of the image. The artist is able to emphasize objects with the help of rays of light and uses super-thin shading. You need to have inhuman zeal and patience to create such a picture, but it is best to find pleasure in such a painstaking work. Julia Bender excellently worked out both options. The best proof of this are her pictures.
