Maybe it&#39;s just one of those things ya gotta have!<br /><br />Susan - the signature isn&#39;t bad, but it could be better. Too late, too many paintings out there. You&#39;ve probably been around WC long enough to spot the weirdos, frauds, and trolls. I tend to keep them under the bridge, where they belong!<br /><br />Lori - I remember hearing Valfred Thelin tell a buyer that the painting was free, he was charging for the signature, heheh.<br /><br />Janet - great name, it&#39;s served me well!<br /><br />Billie - found this: &quot;an official stamp or seal, or a permit or clearance, esp. as formerly used in India and China.&quot;<br />Don&#39;t want to sully the blog with names of neurotic miscreants, email me.<br /><br />Juan - gracias! I have not received the magazine yet, but I&#39;ve been hearing from people in europe about it. I have a feeling you&#39;ll be featured in there soon!Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07901533179774248604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542897110279300858.post-86652658449556166072009-07-16T17:43:26.273-04:002009-07-16T17:43:26.273-04:00Nicholas <br /><br /><br />Today I have enjoyed as never before .... I saw a report about his work in the magazine L&#39;Watercolor # 1. <br />Great news! <br />A big hug!!!cardesinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10157793751582213004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542897110279300858.post-5385376707072071302009-07-16T13:15:06.379-04:002009-07-16T13:15:06.379-04:00That is so cool, Nick! The whole stamp is like a little piece of art. I&#39;ve never heard them called a chop, tho. Zhen used to offer them upon request from her website but when I went back to order one the offer had been removed. dang......<br /><br />Who was picking on you on WC? Inquiring minds would LOVE to know. I can&#39;t help it.

And beautiful too. Our oldest son is also Nicholas and I had his name writen out several years ago....must run and compare the two!

I think signing paintings is probably the most difficult thing about painting and you see some signatures that are full of character but I am never quite satisfied with mine. What a nice gift :)Lori Bartonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10978542594152512963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542897110279300858.post-48615972187491381852009-07-16T01:54:25.304-04:002009-07-16T01:54:25.304-04:00How cool is that! What a great friend you have. I don&#39;t think your<br />signature is bad at all! Haven&#39;t been<br />on WC too much lately, but I do know about the weird one who gave you ----.<br />I had an art teacher who gave me ----, just jealousy.

I have one...but have never used it.

But I like the idea of getting one from the true origin. Things are really busy now, not as much time for the net.<br /><br />H20 - I wish I would have had one yrs ago, my signature isn&#39;t very interesting. <br />That disturbed indidvidual, like a few others on WC, started out as a friend. But some can&#39;t handle other people&#39;s success, and that drives them to do and say things that only expose their own insecurities, failings, and pathetic weirdness. For the record, that nut wrote me from a few addresses/names, couldn&#39;t get rid of him, and then he wrote me <em>again</em>. Next time he can tell my lawyer to &quot;have a great day.&quot; Loser. <br /><br />Teresa - it is cool, isn&#39;t it? Wonder if I can sign checks with it.<br /><br />Susan - I&#39;ll use it on some of them, and I&#39;ll certainly use the characters in a future painting.Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07901533179774248604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542897110279300858.post-21405509321011656402009-07-15T08:54:34.041-04:002009-07-15T08:54:34.041-04:00How cool is that! I love the look of the chop as well as the functionality of having your name to stamp on paintings.
