So i've been exploring what this technique is since until class the other day i had never heard these words before. For your reading pleasure here is wikipedia's definition: Chasing and Repousee is a metalworking technique in which a malleable metal is ornamented or shaped by hammering from the reverse side to create a design in low relief. I got a book from the library by Nancy Corwin which is proving to be fairly interesting. I seem to always forget you-tube as a good informational tool so I'm definitely going to check it out. I feel like I really need to understand the technique before I can design with it. I've been working on my tools and so far I'm kind of addicted to making them. I think I'm really going to enjoy this project.
