I haven’t worked on any smaller woodburned pieces for a minute. But with summer events just around the corner, it’s high time! Up first: new bookmarks.

Hey, Louisville, you’ll be the first to see these in person at Butchertown Art Fair, June 6th and 7th.

Did you know I have a YouTube channel? I have a handful of quick, easily digestible how-to videos on how I’ve used pyrography to portray different subjects. Check out the latest one where I go over how I burned Persephone’s dress!

Summer event season is here!

Catch me south of the Ohio River June 6-7 in the Butchertown neighborhood of Louisville, Kentucky at the Butchertown Art Fair. So excited to have my art back in one of my favorite towns.

I’ll post a more thorough calendar update soon. Or scoot over to my website to check my events page, if you just can’t wait. It’s always there for you.

“What did you do last night, Haley?”

Oh, you know, just recorded an episode of a rockstar pyrography podcast with two of my favorite people in the business. ( 🥰)

Make sure you get that subscription to in good working order, because Episode 7 on Finding Your Voice is gonna be a banger.
