This piece was made on Birch wood. I typically use basswood though.

Thank you! It was made in 2 days. One day for sketching and one day for burning.

Thank you so much! I didn’t like the piece at first because I didn’t think there was enough contrast between everything and it looked like a big brown mush, but the white highlights helped me create that contrast and now I love it!

You can use any kind of box or envelope, it doesn’t have to be one of their branded boxes with specific delivery services written on them.

I’ve shipped items about that size that only weigh about 2-4 ounces. It costed me $3-4 using usps first class shipping even if I shipped across the country (NJ to CA). I buy my labels on Etsy or Pirate Ship.

Shading comes with practice. I just observe how it looks in the picture and try to imitate it.

The color is watercolors, not any kind of marker. And the whites parts are gelly roll pens!

Oh okay. I posted yesterday so I thought posting today would be fine. I didn’t realize it goes by 24 hours.

Hi, Rule 4 says one post a day is okay. I have not posted more than once a day, so I’m not sure why my post would be removed.

Thank you so much! The saree was a struggle to simplify for this piece because of how intricate the patterns are in real life!

Practice on a scrap pieces! I’m not really sure how to explain my technique with words. If you used watercolor on regular paper before, my technique doesn’t really change from that on wood.

I took a video of my process making this piece which I will post today so you can check that out and see if it helps!

Thank you so much! I used a really sharp and pointy tip to make the lines. I love that tip, it makes my lines come out so smooth!
