@@amelioravictoriadionyssia3323 yum! Now I want a steak… I tried to help my daughter make a solar oven for a project years ago but it was not too successful (that was before I started dating the sun man).
@@chrissuich7423 thank you, and yes he always wears welding glasses, this can absolutely damage your eyes. So if anyone wants to dabble in this eye protection is a must. 😎
@@solarcombustionart If you concentrate the beam of light on the center of an empty cast iron pan and got it hot then put a burger in the hot spot then put the glass over the pan I bet it would cook that burger.✌️
My father used to do this. He was such an artist, but sadly, we dont have many of his works left. I love you, daddy! This is truly a talent that not many have or know of. May this art form live on. I know your soul is at peace. ❤
That's such a flex on the universe. Or I guess a humble acceptance of our miniscule existence and expressing it through our more powerful local source of energy that we orbit
People like you deserve to exist. You discover things that your normal every day person would have never would of thought of to try or made possible. Your existence is important on this planet. Always remember that.
Thank you, we strive to make the world a little brighter. I love how my husband creates a magical space when he’s drawing with the sun that seems to give everyone- no matter how their day is going- a few moments of childlike wonder and joy. 🙂
@@tarnishedone1259 Hell has a special place for people who manipulate other people's words and look for the bad in everything. Seek help. You know what. Maybe you don't deserve to exist. How you like those apples?
He’s been at it for 14 years but solar pyrography has been around for a long time. It’s never too late to start! Just remember to always wear welding glasses 😎
Great plan! He’s been to a few local events and if the sun is out it’s a magical time for all; he loves to burn names and melt pennies for kids and he’s sold quite a few pieces of art as well. If only we could control the clouds so it’s sunny on days we need it to be. 🙂 We’ve been talking more lately of doing some traveling next year and checking out some other events.
Definitely! It can cause permanent eye damage, he realized very quickly regular sunglasses weren’t enough protection and for the last 14 years he’s been wearing welding glasses.
Hey there! Thanks so much for your interest, you can purchase through solarcombustion.art :) We also have an art gallery, The Sun Shop, in Louisville, Kentucky.
Lots of people use wood burning kits, few make art with the sun. 🙂 He originally started collecting lenses for solar experiments, then after a near death experience he felt called to make art with the sun.
He got lucky years ago and found this one on eBay, try researching solar concentrators or fresnel lenses. The bigger ones are more expensive, smaller magnifiers will work too they just don’t burn as fast. You also MUST wear welding glasses at all times while doing this or you will get eye damage, and make sure to store lenses safely so you don’t accidentally set anyone’s house on fire. 🙂
Ha! Believe it or not my husband quit drinking and smoking a while back and simply has a 4:21 mindset. 😎 Plus he’s an artist who makes things with the sun, of course he’s eccentric.
