Pyrography and woodcut on cabinet-grade Apple plywood.

96 in x 48 in x 1.25 in (244 cm x 122 cm x 3.175 cm)

 

This full scale portrait of a female bengal tiger has been meticulously crafted at the hand of artist Alex Kuhn. The image is created through burning the wood with a soldering iron and carving away layers using different sizes of wood chisels. Additionally, various marbled burn marks have been created using techniques of both propane and butane torches.

​

This piece is mounted on a custom fabricated "royal-purple" painted steel frame and is prepped for hanging by cleat or wire.
