Four Elements on large wood slice, pyrography, painted art. ⌀17.7" (45cm)

This work of mine depicts the "Four Elements", on a very large wood slice.

Mixmedia Art, a blend of pyrography and painting on wood, depicting the four elements from ancient Pagan belief and mythology :Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. I crafted this piece on a beautiful round pine board. 

The design is first burned onto the wood using pyrography, which adds depth and texture to the artwork. The burnt design is then painted and sealed with a protective matte spray to preserve the colors and ensure durability.

For the four elements, I used the symbols of ancient Nordic pagan culture. All around the slice, I created a frame with the names of the Elements in Tengwar language and letters.
Tengwar was invented by J. R. R. Tolkien and it is the fictional language of Middle-Earth in the Lord of the Rings.

The Four Elements are deeply rooted in ancient pagan mythology, symbolizing the fundamental forces of nature that shape our world.

Earth represents stability and grounding,

Air embodies the power of the wind and the breath of life,

Fire signifies passion and transformation,

and Water embodies the cycles of life and renewal.

This piece testifies the enduring power of ancient mythology and the magic that ONLY lies within the natural "Foresty" world.

The use of pyrography and painting techniques adds a sense of mysticism and enchantment as if the elements themselves have been brought to life on the wood.

The overall effect is a mesmerizing piece that not only adds a touch of elegance to any room but also serves as a reminder of the profound connection between nature and the human experience.

The pyrography technique enhances the depiction of the four elements by adding a unique and captivating visual dimension to the design. Here are some ways pyrography contributes to the overall effect:

Depth and Texture, Visual Contrast, Emphasis on Details, Connection to Nature, Unique Artistry.
