Speaking of Isamo, he has a series of pieces that are basically rounded
stones leaning against or interlocking, the surfaces of which are raw
and pitted. They look like they have been worked over with a point.
How does he get those distinct pits all ove the surface (some quite
deep), without breaking off the high stuff between them? Are they
drilled? Does he use a very thin point? Whenever I try to do this, the
point gets only so far into the surface, then the surrounding stone
starts to loosen and break off.
Any ideas?
