Today I give you some tips for sign your paintings well. Hi me it's Fanny Duhaime I'm an artist painter and I gave myself as mission to help you propel your career as an artist. So today we are going to talk about the signature. This is an important step which means that you finished your work. Normally we will sign our canvas before to apply the final varnish. There are two places to sign. At the front and back of the canvas. At the front is an abbreviated signature so it depends on how you look as an artist. It can be for example your initials, your artist's nickname or your full name first and last name. On the back of the canvas is a signature more complete. So we will register our full name, the year of creation or the full date if you want and the name of your work. Ideally we try not to sign directly on the fabric on the back of the canvas for no that the ink of your pencil passes through and that it is apparent when you look at the work. So we're going to sign on the frame instead wooden, it's much safer. If we go back to the signature that is in front of the work, it must be constant. It can, yes evolve in time, what which is probably sure that will happen to you, but it must not be different from a canvas to another. It's really not necessary that you signs on the bottom right on your canvas, there has no rule that says you have to do that, on the contrary you can let yourself go. It can really be a signature that is integrated into the work or on the contrary a signature really apparent in style graffiti everything depends on the style you're given as long as you are constant on each of your canvases. We must be careful not to sign too much near the edge of the canvas because it's may your client wish to have it framed and there are several models of supervision who board a little on the canvas. So that your signature could be partly hidden. If you devote yourself to making a reproduction complete with another work, you do not have to sign it in your name. So no signature at the front of the canvas and in the back you'll put a note that says: Reproduction of the work (the name of the work), of the artist (the name of the artist who made the original work), by, and there you put your name. If you do a work, strongly inspired from that of another artist and that you received his permission, you can, yes sign your canvas in the front, but it is strongly recommended to write at the back: According to the work of, and here you can write the name of the artist as well as the name of the original work. It will also depend on the agreement you have taken with this artist. And for the way to sign, you can really use several mediums especially if you canvas is made of mixed mediums. You can use a long, thin brush type "liner" to be able to sign with the acrylic or oil painting that you go make a little fluid with a medium or simply with water for acrylic, but be careful not to dilute it too much for not that your painting is translucent. You have to reload often to make sure the signature is very opaque and we did not not to iron and that it is well readable. It is also sold in hardware store artists, paint markers. So it's like you're signing in pencil, but inside it's painting. So you really have a lot more control over each of your gestures. You can also let yourself go and use one of the mediums that you used in your painting. So it can be charcoal, pastel, ink, as long as your signature is legible. For the signature on the back, personally I always use a black marker like "Sharpie", but you can use the pencil that you want as long as it is permanent and that the painting does not fade with the time.
