How do you sign your work?

[Peter Ahrens]

For those who sign their prints, what sort of pen do you use to make it last and not smudge?

I don't get it; are people actually signing the front of their prints?

It's not really that unusual. Painters have been doing it for hundreds of years.

Yup, or sometimes the matte, but I think it looks better on the print.........

If you sign the matt, and they decide to change the mat, there goes the signature...

I need to sign the front of the print because I'll be sending the prints unframed when people buy them.
