I found you!!!! I watched SO many of your videos back in high-school 2008-2010 and I totally forgot about them until I saw something about psychedelics recently and it unlocked a memory. I didn't want to do drugs but it was really interesting to me so I would live vicariously through you haha. I just searched "psychedelic reviews" today and eventually found you! Wow what a blast from the past. Feels like I've found an old friend haha. Hope you're doing well!
I randomly remembered you because I'm my youth I got a lot of information from you during my experiences and today I just remembered. I'm glad I found you, you were always an intelligent source of information and your art is always amazing.
Wow that came out great. I see how long it takes and how much work is actually ( and that’s not including the actually painting it part.) I feel better as a novice to all of this, that it’s going to take time and practice and risk and I have to be patient with myself. Lol
Thanks for this whole series of videos - very informative! Sharpies are not archival - it's too bad that artist you mentioned signs her prints with one.
I’ve had my signature placed in the lower right-hand corner on most all of my works since the 8th grade. It is not a ’true’ signature however. It is a monogram of my last name starting with an ‘L’ with a long baseline. The capital ‘A’ uses the L’s base line as the crossbar on the ‘A’. The ‘N’ rest on top of the base line. The ‘G’ uses the baseline as the crossbar as the horizontal line on the ‘G’. Then I will date the work below that monogram.
My brain just got slammed with this important info about how to sign and print right and learning about graphite pencils being ARCHIVAL! I didn’t know they had archival pens too. I feel more and more like I’m not ready since need money for more supplies. I still can’t seem to figure out what paper is archival and best for art prints. I’ve looked at so many videos and Googled so much. You didn’t put the kind of paper you use. Can you tell me?
Great info, great delivery and very clear, entertaining voice. Gave me great ideas on how to sign, or present pieces with signatures on the bottom right. I'm still torn about how to state a size for a print that is signed - which means the actual art-image would be smaller, like say the art image is 7X10, with the 1 inch around, would make the the actual paper/print-size 9X12. So do I state the print to be 7X10 or 9X12? I like the idea of matting the signed pieces to a standard size, to make it easier for a potential buyer. Putting the buyer to go thru loops just to properly hang the artwork defeats the purpose of selling low-price prints. They would end up with a framing bill that would be much more than what they paid for the print...
I would state both the size of the image and the size of the paper in your listings online. But for in-person sales, it is better to just tell customers the paper size so they can find a frame easily. That's what they're interested in most anyway.
I would like your opinion - After doing handmade art for years, I have started making digital collages which I print out on my HP printer. How do you suggest I sign them, on the image or under it? Should prints be numbered like lithographs? I will appreciate your feedback.
I signed my digital paintings that I make on my iPad and then print out directly onto the image of the print. But I am making open editions. If you're doing limited editions, I would sign underneath the prints so that you can number it under there as well. It just depends on whether you want to do limited or open editions.
For my canvas prints, if there's already a signature on the front from the painting (that I photographed to make the print), then I go ahead and sign it on the back stretcher bars. I think most often people don't sign them on the back when they're prints, but I have found that customers really like that personalized touch.
@@KrystleColeArt Thank you for the quick reply!! I didn't sign the stretcher bars but used pencil on the back of the canvas to indicate it as an A/P and put the title and my signature. (I don't intend to make more prints.) That felt most right to me. Your work is so beautiful! Thanks for your wisdom and for sharing your experience.
Do you ever send out a limited edition giclee print with just the hand signature, number of prints and title WITHOUT a signature on the actual artwork? A printer I'm using suggested I sell it that way, but I'm kind of wary and confused why you'd do that.
Are you meaning composition of the artwork in general? Or composition of where the signature is placed and how it might affect the composition of the artwork? I want to answer your question, just need some clarification :-)
A wealth of information in a short video. Thank you!
I've had the question of how to sign for a long while but never pursued it! Very useful information! Thank you! 🤗
Glad it was helpful!

Same here! Except I was in middle school when I watched her videos XD

Yes, being patient with yourself is key 🎨
Some of your work makes me feel like I'm eating ice cream or I feel like I want to get a bowl of rainbow sherbet. Delicious artwork!
Great presentation! clear and concise thanks!!

@@KrystleColeArt thank you Neuro, love your story, and your NeuroSoup name too! :))
Thanks for asking this. I have no idea who no one ever addresses this issue.
Thanks heaps, really helpful!!
Glad it helped!

I always have to get custom framing done so I can get a wide matt edge.
Hi! Very informative vid. I was wondering, however, whether a giclee print of a painting canvas with stretcher bars should be signed and if so, how?
For my canvas prints, if there's already a signature on the front from the painting (that I photographed to make the print), then I go ahead and sign it on the back stretcher bars. I think most often people don't sign them on the back when they're prints, but I have found that customers really like that personalized touch.

From my perspective, if they are limited edition they should always have a signature
Thanks
Please can you tell me is it better to sign at the back of the print and make comment regarding the composition
Are you meaning composition of the artwork in general? Or composition of where the signature is placed and how it might affect the composition of the artwork? I want to answer your question, just need some clarification :-)
Can you make a video on copywriting art, thanks
It’s usually pencil because it’s classically pencil.
