Welcome!
to the exhibit of the

PYROGRAFFITI
Index


Back to E-Museum Entrance





Published in the Woodcarvers Online Magazine (WOM) since the 1st of January, 1997, are more than fifty articles on contemporary and antique pyrographic art works in a great variety of styles and techniques.

The earliest articles were done as single topics, such as Pyrography as Fine Art, Decorative Art, Folk Art, Decorating Musical Instruments. Later articles were mostly comprised of segments, each on a different artist, topic, or technique.

Wherever there was a corresponding E-Museum Salon created to complement the Pyrograffiti article or segment, mutual links were created. Note that currently, the links FROM the articles TO the E-Museum Salons are obsolete because of the closing of the Yahoo Geocities sites where the original E-Museum was located. The E-Museum hopes to correct all of those links over time, but it will be a long process, so please be patient. Meanwhile, you can either substitute the word "geocities" with the word "reocities" in any link that you like in order to see an archived version, or, alternatively, you can go to the E-Museum's new address by substituting http://pyromuse.org/ for the entire OLD geocities address up to the final forward slash that is followed by the specific file name.

To find a specific artist or topic here in the index for the Pyrograffiti articles, simply key COMMAND F and do a name or word search.

We hope you will enjoy viewing this wide array of wonderful artists and their works that have been featured in Pyrograffiti since 1997. The list is arranged in reverse chronological order.
