I create custom pyrography (wood burning) art work on most any wood object: furniture, jewelry or keepsake boxes, chests, skateboards, guitars, table tops, gun stocks and rifle butts, plaques, tool handles, wood trim and panels, cabinets and doors - if it's wood, I can burn it. Some ideas for wood burning projects include customizing with names, special dates, ornate floral and scroll patterns (my specialty), family crests, monograms, border patterns, birds and animals, memorable quotes, memorials, or any custom art work we agree upon. Pyrography art looks great on its own with natural wood and a clear finish, but I can enhance the work through the use of color, or by applying various shades and colors of wood stain.

ThreeManTiger is the artistic pursuit of Michael Arthurholtz, a mixed media and multidisciplinary artist in southern Nevada boasting a unique range of interests and abilities.
Michael visually communicates through pen & ink in a classical engraving style using cross-hatching and pointillism, embellished with gold or silver, watercolor, illustration marker, and colored pencil. He creates custom designed monogram and family crest illustrations suitable for framing that make unique gifts perfect for any occasion, or for use on letterhead, business cards, and stationary.
Michael is also extremely proficient at creating images on wood in a wood burning method known as pyrography or "pyrogravure". He makes unique works of art with a creative use of stains and color on wood panels, cedar chests, cross sections of tree trunks, furniture, and even skateboards.
Given his affinity for wood and metal, Michael also rescues and refurbishes interesting and odd furniture pieces, repurposing and "upcycling" pieces to fit his vision, and applying his artistic touches to create truly unique and functional items. Drafting tables and cedar chests are a current obsession!
