Chop or my signage


Have been busy making pots and getting ready for the 1st C&S show of the year. The Sacramento C&S club show and sale is May 1st. There's a load of pots in a bisque fire this morning and will fire again on Wednesday so I can a have a couple pots done by Friday for setup.


As you can see this is how you can identify a Kitoi pot. I've been attempting to design a stamp but have not been happy with the results so far. I'll keep trying....

Hi Keith,

I just came back from a workshop in Wooster Ohio, and they demonstrated if you place plastic wrap over the clay - then sign you name - you won't have burrs on you signature. Try it out and see!!

Take care,
Pamela

I don't normally like to see a signature on clay... usually it's too distracting, but I really like yours. It adds something special to the character of the work.

One of the ceramics instructors told me about using carved jade stamps made by someone at the Asian Art Museum.
