Wood

For these three pieces I experimented using the ash from a burnt piece of wood to draw/write with. 




I traced the tree rings in ink to make them more prominent and better show the age of the tree. 


I liked the comparison between the rough bar from a tree to the polished sheen of store bought wood that has been cut and sanded down. 






I found a piece of wood that was so incredibly thin and flexible that it looked like string so I used it as such to create a name tag. 



I burned one side of this piece of wood to reflect how pristine it looked on one side and the corruption on the other. Things aren't always what they seem.
