Spectacular! I am soooo glad I found you! I appreciate not only your work, but also you sharing your knowledge and expertise. You do an excellent job of explaining what you are doing in layman's terms, and the voice-over is my favorite; no ums and ahs, no background noises, no pets or kids running across the screen, and last but definitely not least...no obnoxious music! Thank you! Thank you! 😊💖
I've watched this video several times now and I love your work, I've used alot of your techniques and worked them in with my own to a point where I'm really quite happy with the portraits that I do now, I don't know why I haven't like this video before, so I've done it today, I really enjoy your videos thanks for sharing your knowledge with us
You are almost at my level of art and portraiture. Keep plugging away and you'll get there. Just kidding. I was in awe watching you with seeming ease take a piece of wood and turn it in to a piece of art worthy of anyone's wall space. For X-mas I bought some large wooden spoons from a local artist that had different images burned into the back that I was quite impressed by. That is probably the reason I'm even watching your video. The fact you are sharing is to be commended and any one watching will agree your an artist. I'll be back. lol
Amazing! Beautiful! I stumbled across your previous video and had to see the final portrait. I'm so blown away and feel so inadequate. Thank God for talented people as yourself.
You did great work. The loving thing is that you are so dedicated and specialised to this. Another funny thing is that Minisa means 'man' in our native language. 😄You aren't Minisa but a great woman.
That is fantastic Minisa! I’m hugely impressed with your talent. I thought it looked great half way through the video but with each section you made it superb. The lady is beautiful too!
Beautiful I would so love to learn this . We just lost our 29 yr old son to cancer and would love to do a portrait of him in wood burning. I’ve done many other things but not portraits
Hi Minisa your pyrography work is amazing. Could it be done on pine wood? I've been making clocks but all my work is pretty solid dark Lines. I've been asked to do a portrait and not sure if I can pull it off on pine wood.
I love to see your work, it's amazing and so finely detailed. You make it look so easy. There is a question that I have regarding equipment. I use an Optima unit but finding that the pens are getting too hot. I've tried purchasing some heat resistant gloves but every pair I've bought are either usually too bulky and look more like welding gloves or, not heat resistant enough. I notice that you have a blue glove that you appear to have worn from the outset, which i'm guessing means they're perfect for protection - where did you buy them and are they available in the UK? or do you have any other recommendations? Thanks Minisa and keep up the amazing work 😊
Most of the heat is going to come into the pen on the first 1/4" (6.35mm) of the pen body. If you move your hand, or the foam grip back that much from the end, you should get a lot less heat on your hand. Obviously, if you are burning red hot (above 5) on the dial, you are going to get a hot handle anyways (thou shalt not break the laws of thermal dynamics ;-)...
I use (2pack Solid Natural Cork Bungs to Fit Demijohn Bottle Winemaking Homebrew glass bottles @ 46mm/55mm) you can buy them on eBay for just a few pounds. Carefully drill a hole in the middle then File the hole till its just big enough to put your Burning Pen through with a tight push through fit and there you have a Heat protective grip. I`ve been using them for 5 yrs now and never feel any heat through the Cork.In fact the two I bought 5 yrs ago I`m still using 👍
@@pyrographypete6640 At first it might feel a little "big" to hold but you will get used to the thickness. Other than that you could always trim it down to your comfort feel, but I left mine at its normal thickness of the bung, and as I said I`ve been using the same Cork bung for over 5 yrs now and it feels normal to me using it .
absolutely beautiful!!! could you please explain why you prefer the solid point shading tip vs the professional wire shading tips? for some reason mine never gets hot enough and never makes any mark on the wood unless i let it sit there forever :(
What is the name of the tool you use in this work? Where can we get it? Can you tell us a site where the product is sold? I guess not found in Turkey. Thank you 😊
Not enough to trigger the fire alarm but enough to bother your eyes and nose. I have a tiny battery-powered fan I use to blow the smoke plumes away from my face.
Yes, I do have some timelapse videos of animals on my channel. I also offer in-depth tutorials with real-time video and instructions on my Patreon page: www.patreon.com/minisa The projects include patterns, reference photos, and oftentimes I'll include a PDF with written instructions and progress photos.
Dear ,madam , I'm sri lankan and one of your subscriber, l studded your lessons , l also created some pictures but l have no pyrography tools , l used it for a soldering ion tool ,so can you help me,
Hi. I use the Walnut Hollow Creative Versa-Tool and the shading point for my work. For the lighter values, I'll turn the burner down a little (where the orange meets the red on the dial.)
With respect, every person has their own style of production, some are better at figuring out their strong points and work on those to create what they do. Art isn't perfect. Wood burning takes years of practice it just doesn't fall out of you like drawing with pencil. She said there's no way you can erase your mistakes in this video which isn't necessarily true. I erase mistakes. I also try and intentionally not make them. She says she starts with the eyes, where as those are one of the last things I work on. There are no lines only edges is what I live by when I burn. I also burn from outside in not the inside out. I do background first to set the tone for the main part of my work. My style isn't hers either, I tend to not do portraits in my work but when I do I do my best, not her best or I would never get it. Burn comfortably not intentionally. Steal what you can from others techniques and make then your own. you can't learn portraits from a video either no matter what. Hope this helps and remember, you do you, not someone else. Have great journey.

Great video, you do a wonderful job of telling why you're doing certain things, not everyone has took art classes. Great job 👍
Hi. I'm from Kazakhstan. You have a great job. I also recently started doing wood burning.👍
I wish there were sections in real time,this time lapse takes all the fun watching these TH-cam videos☹️
The results are great

Sensationell Gut 👍 Wunderschön gemacht👏👌
Hi, I admire your work, I take little steps, it's hard to find a nice piece of wood. I have a question on what kind of wood do you burn the best?
She uses basswood! you can find these wood slices (including the exact one she is using) at craft stores like Micheal's and Hobby Lobby for $5-20 :)

That’s amazing
absolutely beautiful!!! could you please explain why you prefer the solid point shading tip vs the professional wire shading tips? for some reason mine never gets hot enough and never makes any mark on the wood unless i let it sit there forever :(
Parabéns ficou igual e muito bonito
Just amazing! ❤
C est superbe!!!!!!!!!!
Good job, can where am I gonna buy such good soldering iron,?
What is the name of the tool you use in this work?
Where can we get it?
Can you tell us a site where the product is sold?
I guess not found in Turkey.
Thank you 😊
É simplesmente lindo.
Wow so nice 😊
New friends🤝 😊
Congratulations. These are beautiful products. I also do wood burning. I'm waiting for my page.
Magnificent...
Beautiful
Where do you get this wood? 0:07 Awesome portrait!
Amazing work, how long does a piece like this actually take you to finish?
I'm looking to get into wood burning. Will the be a problem of smoke when it's being done in the house?
Not enough to trigger the fire alarm but enough to bother your eyes and nose. I have a tiny battery-powered fan I use to blow the smoke plumes away from my face.
Beautiful art work, what do you use under your burner? Kind of sponge? Thank you
Goooooood😍😍😍 im from indonesia
Just WOW 🏆🏆🏆👏👏👏👏👏
how long does it take you to burn a portrait?
I enjoy your videos and am starting to do some pyrography, do you only use shading tips?
Thank you! Yes, I use the shading point for most of my work.
I really admire your work..... Actually I can do it.... It's just that I don't have the tools and materials...hahahha
you should tattoo we need more realism tattoos out here
How do u contour the skin? U use dots or lines ?
Very nice...
👍
Do you pull your right hand with your left?
do I use the same tip for the whole drawing?
Why aren't you using the razortip?
How much do you charge for some like this
Do you have any videos of animals, dogs and cats by chance?
Yes, I do have some timelapse videos of animals on my channel. I also offer in-depth tutorials with real-time video and instructions on my Patreon page: www.patreon.com/minisa The projects include patterns, reference photos, and oftentimes I'll include a PDF with written instructions and progress photos.

Hi. What kind of wood do you use in your woodburning?
Hi. I prefer to use basswood for my burnings.

Maybe I can help you. Please,send me the message patatajaj@gmail.com
What temperature do you use for shading?
Hi. I use the Walnut Hollow Creative Versa-Tool and the shading point for my work. For the lighter values, I'll turn the burner down a little (where the orange meets the red on the dial.)

Beautiful 💛💙💛picture! Can you do a portrait of Jesus? God bless.
i can see you doing the art, but i don’t understand how it’s a “how-to” maybe i’m just not good enough.
