Hello everybody, welcome to my webpage Pirograbados de Jurgen! Pirograbado is the Spanish word for Pyrography in English, so what you can see here are the pyrography works of Jurgen, and that´s me. I hope you like them! To see all my woodburnings you have to go back to my principal page in Spanish, clicking on "PAGINA PRINCIPAL".

Something about the artist:
I was born in 1966 in Bodegraven (Holland) and I studied Languages and Cultures of Latin America at the University of Leiden. Since 1991 I Live in Cuenca (Spain)
Thanks to my wife I rediscovered my passion for drawing and painting. Not so long ago, during the holidays in Austria, I discovered another technique, namely PYROGRAPHY:
"I never had heard about it, and never had seen a pyrography work before ... I was astonished about the possibilities of woodburning. Now, I don´t know how to live without this new hobby. It´s filling my life..."
Some of the works you can see here were done for the Exhibition "La Mota", which my wife Nelida and I celebrated in Mota del Cuervo (Spain), during the month of March 2012. With this Exhibition we wanted to honor the work and art of the La Mancha people.
I post here some of my new woodburnings:

I hope you like them! If you want to see my other woodburnings, please click here.
