How can you colour your Pyrography Pieces?

-
In this video you can find a nice pattern for a flower copied to a wooden piece using Pyrography / wood Burning technique.
Yet how can colour be added to this image to give it life?
Simply you can use colour pencils.
For adding a more artistic touch I use the Faber-Castell watercolour pencils.
It's like any other colour pencils yet after using it , simply add a drop of water with the brush to the coloured Area to have the water colour effect without the effort to be made in using the usual watercolours.
This video make it simple for you to practise this.

How to start a Pyrography project of an Islamic pattern

In this two minutes video, I used the geometry and the Islamic art design to create the famous islamic Eight-pointed star on wood. Islamic decoration makes great use of geometric patterns which have developed over the centuries. Many of these derived from various earlier cultures: Greek, Roman,  Byzantine , Central Asian , and Persian. The shading in this piece was linear which is a very easy technique of shading. The design is easy once you got the idea. The lines can be burned easily by the help of a metal ruler.
