Mikael,
This is a question in line with the question of which frame to use.
Signing the canvas is a detail that comes extra to the design and is hard to fit in. It is a sort of break or changing the scene. The name of the author is a detail that has nothing to do with the picture, I think. But It has non the less been a tradition to add the name in some sort or the other on the artwork.
The most striking signatures are the ones written in the wet paint.
I think that any personal design will work as long as it is not too dominating.
By the way, I had a fabulous experience yesterday that I believe that you will be the only one on this to really appreciate.
I was talking to the resident of the house that I am recently thatching. He is a Swede and about to go back to Sweden these days. He was carrying furnitures and paintings out of the house and we had a chat about paintings. He showed me some paintings from a Swedish painter that had a special signature on his paintings. He always painted a flying cow somewhere in the paintings and he was called the "Flygende Kusse"
You see, anything will do.
Best Allan
