I've been a member for a while now, but this is my first post. I've only recently started painting in oils (pastels *were* my medium of choice), but I love the handling and find myself wishing I'd started painting sooner.

This is 16" x 20" oil on gesso panel - done as a verdaccio underpainting and glaze with local color added last.

I had difficulties getting a photo without a glare since the glazing medium made for some glossy (and oh so juicy) paint.

In doing a Master copy - is there a rule about how one should sign the painting?

Critiques welcome, and Happy New Year!
