I have to comment on your amazing still life at the top of the post. I was sure it was an example you were posting of something from a museum masterworks collection and then I saw your copyright beneath it. What beautiful drawing!Jana Bouchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18019523068496828367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-30510245127356144922007-03-17T16:06:00.000+00:002007-03-17T16:06:00.000+00:00Thank you for posting an important piece.

I will have to study it a lot closer before I form an opinion, but my initial thoughts are: <BR/>Anyone could copy a nicely cropped portion of my artwork without the signature. Yikes!<BR/>It is rare that we put "watermarks" on our works, and at any rate they can't be fully marked. After all, we want our presentation to look nice.<BR/>I have been meaning to learn the proper ways to identify my images in computer text. For instance, if I were to Google my name, and select Google Images, all of my works would post. Currently, my one Bay Area gallery has done this. Your post motivates me to do this soonest.<BR/>I have a policy of only posting the artwork of deceased and famous artists. Such is my crude understanding based on only a little research! I once had an art critic tell me (she works for a major newspaper) that she thought any image copying from the net was fair game. Guess that teaches me to ask serious questions of the non-serious!Casey Klahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08020906666248399435noreply@blogger.com
