This video shows some of the finalizing that goes into an already finished painting! I have since shipped this one to Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. It was a commission arranged through the gallery.

How long ago did you decide to sign your name on the back? Have you always done that? I’m intrigued after reading different artist’s approaches.

I always sign and date the front unless it is a really small piece. I started consistently printing my name, title and date on the back maybe a decade ago?

Ah, right. Makes sense to put the full info on the back.
Do you ever have trouble selling a painting because it’s dated? I’ve heard for and against that.
Personally, I think a date should make zero difference to whether a painting is worth buying. You either like/value it or you don’t. But obviously some people are suspicious when they can see that a painting has taken a while to sell.

Good question l, I agree should not matter. The work I sell is almost always relatively new so not sure.
