Meet the Maker
I’m Sabrina Alexander and primarily a pyrography and graphite artist based in St. Louis, Missouri. My background is varied and stretches from pet grooming in Massachusetts to micro farming in Georgia. Art became a focus when I returned to an urban lifestyle, often expressing my interest in the human impact on the natural world, and vice versa.
My portraits ride the line between realism and maintaining the artist’s touch. The use of traditional methods, including pencil and paper, a small torch, and heated metal nibs, stems from an attachment to the transformative nature of taking things slow. Each woodburned piece is created by hand and unique, though prints may be made available for purchase.

How it’s Made
Barred Owl is hand drawn with a tiny heated piece of metal held much like a pen. Hand drawn pyrography often takes hours and requires patience and attention to detail, imbuing the work all the little ticks and quirks of handcrafted art. An off mark cannot be erased but must instead be sanded or covered with another, darker mark.
Shop Policies
Full refund if original artwork is returned undamaged within seven days.
I cannot accept returns on commissioned artwork. Please message me immediately should the item arrive damaged.
When buying pyrography (woodburn), please be aware that you are buying a piece of "living art" and that over time the vibrancy, texture and tonal qualities will most likely change. Wood can darken and is subject to the effects of humidity and lighting. It is up to your care of the art and Mother Nature how much change will occur and when.
That said, keeping the art out of sunlight and away from humidity will help slow the effects of change.
