6 Ways to SIGN your Watercolor Paintings (& the BENEFITS of Each)

Professional artist Paul Hopkinson shares different ways that he signs his watercolor paintings and the reasons why.

All artists have their preferred way of signing their work. I have my favourite ways, but I do vary my signature depending on the type of painting I have completed. So for some paintings I will use a traditional pencil method, for others I may use a gel pen. I tend to look at where I want to add my signature, what I am writing on and also what colour it is. In this video I explain the pros and cons of these methods and also other things that you may use the equipment for.

For more useful tips and techniques for your watercolor paintings can I suggest watching this video next: https://bit.ly/3byRxjy which is all about do's and don'ts when you are painting realistic eyes in watercolor.
