This is quite a unique piece. I love the whole look of it – the carved lines, the abstract ‘vein’ detail, and the depth that the burning brings to the whole piece. I am glad that you went with the technique instead of a dry brushing.
Your support wood behind it is distracting. Painting it would create a bad focal point. But the blandness of the backing takes away from the design - maybe cut “shadow” lines that repeat the wings and body edge. I am not sure. But I do find that curve very distracting to such a lovely piece.
