Thank you, Bob! I'm embarrassed to say I signed a bunch of early acrylic works on paper with the wrong sort of pen, and found that after a couple of years the signature had disappeared!
Bob you always brighten my day. Thank you. Great advice. I bought an oil paint pen. I was afraid the signature would either bleed through or fade away. You cleared that up. I even thought of signing the back with charcoal and spraying it with final fixative.
Bob, I looooove you and your videos. I see you have also written some books and produced videos. Sigh...you know I'm going to HAVE TO buy some of these. Seriously, I am telling everybody on my Facebook page about how awesome you are. Maybe they'll check you out on RU-vid as well. Your advice about collages has got me fired up! In fact, I spent all of this week drawing stuff on black drawing paper so as to photocopy them and incorporate all the stuff into my collages/collage paintings.
No hablo inglés pero espero usted si español, me agrada mucho sus técnicas de pintura !!! Gracias por compartir , nos ayuda mucho a los principiantes!!! Dios lo bendiga y lo proteja!!
Thanks for the info Bob It's my first time I created some oil paintings for a local art fair and I forgot to put my name on it! I will do it now! Thank you very much!

Hi Junie - Thanks for your message! Just your name - that is all that is necessary. When you sign, be as legible as you can so people can read your name. Then use that same name for your email address, social media and website. Bob

*Just started playing with painting & have a place to display & sell them for me... I'm looking to learn all that I need to know before selling. LOVE your video... Just subbed & hit the Bell. Hope you have a video about pricing paintings & shipping if it comes to that. Totally going to be learning from you!!! Your video is Over the Top Awesome!!! Thank you!!! I have a YT channel & instagram, but it's not my actual name. Sounds like I need to have all seperate sites with my name for just my paintings correct? I'll be selling locally for now, but God only knows what the future holds. Another Question: You number your paintings instead of naming or do both? Thank you for your guidance.😁😁😁*
Thanks! Another question. Canvas depth and frames I notice this multiple piece which I love, seems to be painted on "skinny" depth canvas. I am in an artist coop that asks that all pieces be framed if not gallery depth. Would love info/video on canvas depth and framing. Also the framing and hanging of multiple canvas pieces... love having a pro to ask this question of. Thank you.
This was really great, maybe the only part missing was the demo of the signature with the markers, although finally i have an option to make a cler italic signature on my oil painting! thx
My artwork is signed in print and cursive 😬 I thought some pieces look better printed and others with a signature. Even my signature looks different every time.
I struggle with signing my paintings and very inconsistent. Sometimes cursive and sometimes print or block script. Once I sign a painting, can I change the signature? I just love to paint but don’t know the technicalities. Thanks
I sign my Paintings on the backside. Date , Name and sign i'cant sign it on the Front i often work with abstract materials like sand or Gels looks better too. I use a UV resistant Marker like a Black Copic Marker
In my opinion, oil-based pen markers are the best. The time-honored way is to paint your signature with oil paint. Use a small oil brush. Thanks for asking!
