Just a couple photos of the process I am going through with my Chop or signature.I decided to give it an native american spin by using the ovoid, one of the classic shapes in Northwest coast art. I also employed the U-shape in the bottom of the R. I have decided to not use classic carving techniques for this piece after talking with Tom because I will not be able to make the indentations deep enough to leave an impression in the clay. Therefore I have decided to use a router type tool to get the job done. I haven't experimented with this type of carving at all yet so I'm excited to see where it goes. more pictures to come!
