Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 304 Creating your own Chinese seal (or chop), part of Deke's Techniques.
…Hey gang, this is Deke McClelland.…Welcome to a very special adventure in Deke's Techniques.…This week, I'll show you how to create your own personal Chinese seal, which is…a kind of stamp that you can use to sign your artwork, also known as a chop.…Specifically I'll show you how make this chop right…here, now, this is my name, believe it or not.…And in case you're wondering, how this amounts to my name and you might find…this interesting, if you're trying to distill your…name into something resembling Latin characters as well.…
Well I started with the word Deke, here, with an underscore.…And then I've got an M, that's a kind of Wolverine slash.…Followed by two cs, one on top of another.…An l, an e, two more ls, and an ampersand which is a-n-d.…So that gives us McClelland.…For the chop, we've got this red background and then I add the M, two cs.…The l and e at an angle, we'll see why in a second.…2 l's and an ampersand.…So again we've got McClelland and then I draw the…word Deke; that is my first name down like so.…
