When colonization came to call in the US, many folks wrote about america as a pristine Eden whose forest were filled with delights and bounty. This was because indigenous folk (Like mine) built up food forest. Things that were razed and destroyed as a part of racist violence. Colonization is ongoing

"I Saw a Bird: Blue Jay" Approx. 7" across, scrap circular saw blade, copper, spray paint, and paint pen. Sold. Very pleased with this scruffy lad— it was snagged by a Patron before it even got to come to con! Stay tuned for more birds, though. ♥️ Suggestions for other saw birds always welcome.

⛈️🌕🐺 ------ #pyrography #furryart #ozarkobscuraart
pyrography piece featuring a snarling werewolf woman in the middle of a transformation. she has turned, pivoting at the hip to face you, almost as if you stepped on a twig or she caught your scent and has spotted you now. her mouth is open wide, fangs flashing and pupil-less eyes wide and furious. her hands, sprouting blackened claws, are flexed and ready to tear through skin and flesh, and she is tensed as if about to spring toward you to do just that. the fur sprouting from her form as well as the long hair on her head whips to the side in a strong wind that is also reflected in the angles and texture patterns in the trees in the background. behind those, the silhouette of mountains stand against a black, swirling sky featuring a full moon partially obscured behind racing clouds.

this is all burned onto a round slice of wood with rough bark visible around the edges. the wood has a warm hue, and the entire piece sits on red flannel fabric.same as previous image, but the picture is taken at an angle to show off the textures and detail in the piece.

Awoo! Howling wolf woodburn on basswood with some wood stain on the background. It’s about 9x12. Hopefully will get back to woodburning soon. Once the temperature drops and autumn comes.
Photo of a wood burned basswood round with a realistic howling wolf design. The background is burned in a radial design and stained with a darker mahogany color to emphasize the lighter natural wood colors in the wolf.
