Raku Pottery Mark Identification Question

Hello,
Need help identifying the mark on this Raku vase.
It has a mark at the bottom and a paper tag that reads "Raku" on the front.
The closest style I found was a vase buy Bob Clyatt Rye ( last pick) but I think it's a long shot.
Any ideas?

Thank you!

 

Not sure why you think there might be a connection between an item marked 'raku' and an item made by Bob Clyatt, Rye, NY.

I can see why you think those are similar in form and why you also think it's a long shot.

If it's from a US potter you might check here if you haven't already though it helps if you know what the initials are. I'm not entirely sure what these initials are. I've rotated it in case the last is a P.

Because of the "7 Heads" vase he made that to me, looks very similar.
I found nothing else so close but again, it's just a thought.
I am still looking for info on the mark at the bottom.
Thank you.

 

It looks like student work.
