And the 3 dimensionality of it is so eye catching

[@ZarpeParadise]

Really mesmerizing to watch you work in those details. Your skills are AMAZING! I am a little short on patience so I think pyrography could help me with that. I love black and white photography, too. Thanks for all your tips. We learn most from our mistakes so thanks for showing the "too dark" part, too.

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

Thank you for your very kind comment!

[@es5605]

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

Amazing job!!

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

Thank you!!

[@BurnSavvy]

Those flowers are simply stunning! Did I see you dip your pen in something as you worked?

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

Thank you! ❣️ No, I am not dipping my pen. What you may be seeing is me cleaning carbon off or adjusting the temperature of the burner.

Thank you! 😊

[@user-de6yh2jp2k]

Love your work , also would like to know if you sell gourd seed . Just getting started with gourds ...

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

Thank you! No I do not sell gourd seeds.

[@sandytroxel7823]

What tip are you using in this video? Such beautiful, intricate work. Thank you

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

A shading pen

[@sandytroxel7823]

Thank you, I have a shading tip and the fan coming today! Love your flowers. I live in Holland, Michigan and want to do some tulips on a gourd.

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

@@sandytroxel7823 that sounds beautiful! 🌷

[@PatsyWagstaff-lf2bz]

What burner do you use?

[@kimkiernan3987]

Would you tell what tip you used for your pyrography…must be some sort of shading tip?

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

Yes I am using bent spear shading tip pen. I think it is a medium size one.

[@rowenabishop7926]

What tool are you using to do the burning. I would love to get one.

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

I use Optima and Razertip pyrography pens

[@tamilouduplechin7927]

A question or two,.... what about the smell? Does it have a strong smell of burning or does the gourd itself have a smell when burned too?? Also, on another video you did when you show from seed to art,... how did you get all the mold and skin of the outsides?? Ie detergents and what not... thanks 😊

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

It depends on the gourd and how hot I have the temperature set. Sometimes the gourd smells vaguely like chocolate! It usually is a pleasant odor but there also can be a real stinker now and then! Yes washing with detergent and a scrubber, to clean, and elbow grease!

[@user-mm1cx1or4n]

Do you have any demo using colored pencils on gouds

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

Not yet but that can be a good future video! Thanks for your comment!

[@ghislainedeghoy3913]

Bonjour, votre pyrograveur va de quelle température minimum à quelle maximum, si vous avez une marque a me conseillé,merci

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

I use a Burn Master Eagle 2 port pyrography unit, goes from 0-10. Most often I burn between a 4-6.

[@7andearth76]

Do you polish it to get the sheen?

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

No, that just naturally happens as I burn and the pores of the gourd close up.

[@lindiweanyika7196]

Do you use sealant or lacquer the burn on a gourd or just a clear coat seal on it? We have the family to it called a calabash I'd love to try a burn on it but I want the burn to last haven't seen anyone mention how they finish the piece

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

I use an acrylic spray to seal it. By Krylon, has UV protection.

[@lindiweanyika7196]

@@JennAveryGourdArt thank you so much. I hope I can find it here

[@Walua]

What wood burner are you using? What tip? Thank you

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

I am using a razertip shading pen. Any brand of shader will work here. See my video on pyrography pens for gourds for more details!

[@susanhansen3232]

Which brand of wood burner do you prefer?

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

I use a Burnmaster Eagle 2 port, with several brands of pens. I mostly use Razertip and Optima.

[@valdenicesilva1163]

Qual o nome do aparelho que ela usa pra decorar as cabaças

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

Caneta pirografia

[@robingreany899]

Love watching but too detailed for my trying.

[@JennAveryGourdArt]

Glad you liked watching, may I suggest start starting small and simple?
