I remember using a wood burning pen once before this occasion which was when we helped our aunt wood burn some decorations for our cousins 15^th birthday. It was a fun new experience but also very painful as I did get burned several times accidentally. Being aware of this tool made my sister and I want to incorporate the method into our capstone project. The capstone project in a nutshell is a western-style desk. The desk will include different designs that are western themed around various parts of the desk. I will admit that our starting practices looked very funky and imperfect. However, we hope to improve over time eventually being close to perfect for the final product that will be presented to judges on April. And I know that I will not get bored during this process because I chose to do something I like which is art. I am considering purchasing one on my own in the future (since the one we are currently using is our teacher’s) because I believe it would make a great hobby. There are endless designs that someone can do, and I want to be experienced to where I can make challenging art with a wood burning pen.
