That’s right, it’s fire!

Canadian artist Patrick spent 14 years creating a unique "fire paint". He used the flames of candles to burn a layer of soot on special paper and burned it as he pleased. Use pens or other tools to draw out drawings of portraits, still lifes, creatures, etc. out of the soot shapes.

Of course, the fire painting did not go smoothly at the beginning, especially the unprocessed paper, which will burn out if it is burned by fire. In order to solve this problem, Patrick applied a thick layer of coating agent on the paper; because soot easily flew away, after the painting was completed, another layer of paint had to be applied before the painting was completed.
