"My Chop Mark Collection" 



I would love to add your special mark to my collection! If you could take a quick photo of your "Chop Mark" in clay (signature or stamp), and send it to me (see below). I'll be happy to post it to this site and I can even put a link to your website, blog, youtube channel, Etsy store or none at all if you wish! Whatever would help you best!

WHY A CHOPMARK COLLECTION?
Chop Marks on handmade pieces allow an artist to claim "parenthood" of each piece while helping those who are interested in their work know of its original origin. To me, these markings are works of art in themselves, just like individual people are unique...so is an artists' Chop Mark!
Please let me know if you have any questions or challenges! ~ Thanks in advance!

Hand Pounded Ceramic Bowls
Making & Glazing & Kiln Opening




Tammy Jo Notes: This was really a lot of fun to do! I decided to gift small earthenware bowls to some people who I'm so thankful for. Here's the whole process...beginning to end. You never know with clay...kiln openings are always exciting moments. Now I've got to figure out what happened in the glaze load!
