ANIMALS & INSECTS- not cats or dogs

This page does not include birds, cats, or dogs. They have their own pages

Click on an image to open the corresponding blog. The blog will have a free pattern (if available), video tutorial link (if available), and the written tutorial.

If there is only a video thumbnail, then there isn’t a blog. Instead there is just a video tutorial on YouTube.

All of the photos below represent artwork with nonfunctional blogs. Because of this, I’ve included a link to the corresponding pattern and tutorial video (if available).

This video goes into great detail on the zigzag burn stroke that I use to create short fur texture. You might find the information it contains helpful.

Abstract Dragonfly pattern

Abstract dragonfly features a small dragonfly in each corner. This is part mandala and part whimsy. It’s a fun design to play around with, and would probably look great with some added color.

Anaconda pattern

Butterfly Book Front pattern

Butterfly book is a beginner friendly project. There is minimal wood burning, but lots of colored pencil work. The artwork was burned onto a wood box shaped like a book. There is a front and back side to the book.

Here’s the pattern for the back side of the book: Butterfly Book back pattern Since this was a ‘book’ I also have a pattern for along the right edge of the book: Book Border pattern

Lastly, here’s the pattern for the binding edge: Book Binder pattern
