tabling at a ceramics fair

Been a bit quiet recently because I’ve been busy working on stuff for the upcoming market, but here’s a new piece! I titled this one ‘Family Dinner’. #birds #birdart #birdartwork #woodburning #woodburner #pyrography

Hey everyone, I’m super happy to announce that I’ve been accepted into my first ever art market! It’s the Indian Hills Arts and Craft Fair this September. I have a lot of work to do but I’m so excited! (also if any of you have advice on markets it would be uh, crazy appreciated)

Happy (my very first) #PortfolioDay I’m Moggs Drews, an illustrator and woodburner based in Colorado. I’m currently looking for representation and am working on a comic. I hope to see ya around! My portfolio: moggsdrewsillustration.com #kidslit #kidslitillustrator #illustrator #comicart

An ode to one of my favorite films of all time! I’ve been missing illustration and recently rewatched #theexorcist which inspired me to pick up the pencil again. I’ve always loved the parts of the film that feel like a medical horror. #illustration #illustrator #fanart #horrorart

Finally got some higher quality photos of this #barnowl piece! I had so much fun with this one, I just love doing all the little details and dots on the feathers. #birds #birdart #sciart #woodburning #woodburner #pyrogrpahy #woodcraft

Two #barnowls two years apart! The first is one from Dec 2024 and the one on the right is my most recent burn. It’s hard to believe I’ve only been doing this a couple of years and it’s wild to see how much my approach has changed. #birds #birdart #owl #woodburning #woodburner #pyrography

Me. Visiting the Reflecting Pool

A few weeks ago my brother challenged me to woodburn a thunderstorm which is where this idea came from. I tried out more of an etching-style with this one that I’m quite happy with for a first try! #woodburning #woodburner #pyrography #woodcraft #cowart

My latest burn! I was really intimidated by doing the cacti but I feel like they turned out ok? Cacti King 10” X 12” Woodburning on Basswood #woodburning #woodburner #pyrography #woodcraft #quail #birds #birdart #sciart

A year and a half out of college and I’m already having the “oh no I’ll never have a real job unless I go to graduate school!” thoughts

A lil sneak peek of my next woodburn 🫣, have been wanting to do a quail for some time and I think this lil guy turned out ok. #woodburning #woodburner #woodcraft #birds #birdart #quail #SciArt

Prairie Kiss Woodburning on Basswood I can’t believe it but this piece already sold! Thankfully I was able to snag a better picture of the finished piece before it went to its new home. #birds #birdart #merlins #woodburning #pyrography #woodburner #woodcraft

Happy anniversary to #KidLitArtPostcard ! I managed to whip this up for the theme! I was a kid who was always imagining little friends or creatures with intricate inner lives who could be my playmates. Also, yes, I was somehow blonde. I’m currently looking for representation!

🏳️‍🌈 Happy Pride Month 🏳️‍🌈 I finished this piece of two male merlins kissing just in time! I already took it to hang up but I’m hoping to snag a higher quality picture of it sometime this week. I titled this one ‘Prairie Kiss’ #woodburner #woodcraft #woodburning #pyrography #birds #birdart #queerart

Hello BlueSky! I’m Moggs, an illustrator and pyrographer from colorful Colorado. Much of my work is inspired by nature with some of my favorite subject matter being mushrooms, fish, trees, landscapes, and birds. In my free time I like to forage, hike, see live music, and care for my 30+ plants.

Woah! A video! Here’s a quick compilation of some of my most recent woodburnings, and also, my face 👀. #birdart #birds #woodburning #woodburner #pyrogrpahy #woodcraft #natureart

One of my recent little woodburns! Always a fan of this silly little pose that geese do. #birdart #goose #birds #woodcraft #woodburning #woodburner #pyrography

My friend recently introduced me to #thesiltverses and I’m instantly hooked. I’m only a couple episodes in so these designs might be completely off but here’s some sketches I made while listening to it last night. #siltverses #fanart #podcastfanart #illustration #characterdesign

Woodburning of a #kestrel I made a few weeks ago! I love how the sense of movement turned out in this one. #woodburning #pyrography #birdart #birds #woodcraft #illustration

Spring has officially sprung here in Colorado and I’ve finally gotten back to some woodburning. Full transparency, I’ve been feeling pretty down about myself recently. But this piece really made me happy. #illustration #woodburning #pyrography #wood #craft

Sorry I’ve been so quiet recently! I’ve been woodburning a ton and can’t wait to share everything I’m making with you all! I just need to like, actually photograph everything…..but I can promise, there’s gonna be a lot of birds.

Happy Earth Day.

Jumping back into the springtime by breaking out the woodburner. Hoping to maybe get into some markets this year but we’ll have to see. Still feeling super rusty. #birdart #birds #woodburning #pyrography #woodburner #illustration
