About the Author

Simon Easton studied a BA (Hons) degree at Manchester Metropolitan University where he studied woodturning, silversmithing and pewterware. His pewter napkin ring set was one of the MMU winners of the Pewter Live 1999 competition, and was displayed at Pewterers' Hall in London. He has won both a Precious Metals Bursary and a Grant from the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths in order to produce design concepts that he had developed. The common theme in Simon's work was a decorative and textural feel, often rich in embellishment or pattern.

Kindle Arts Society Aaron Lynn

This third work by Simon Easton is a lively book loaded with ideas for decorating one’s surroundings in myriad ways using pyrography. After a good technical introduction, the author continues by providing varied, often geometric designs, for many kinds of wood pieces, and shows the pyro artists how to use those, adapt them, or even create new designs on other pieces.
