Founded in 2019, Phoenix Fractals is owned and operated out of Corpus Christi, Texas by husband and wife team Darren and Candy Starkebaum. 

Fractal wood burning is a process of applying an electrically conductive solution on wood and then applying high voltage electricity through a microwave transformer using two probes. When this electricity is applied, it burns in the wood from one probe to the other. The figures that are created are commonly called Lichtenberg figures or fractal burns. These burns create a lightning like image that is burnt into the wood.

All fractal work is completed by Darren and Candy Starkebaum and select pieces are outsourced for fine art painting.
