Hi.. ok, well about 6 weeks ago I decided to take the little free time that I spend entering challenges and devote it to starting a little money making business... I now have my pictures up for sale in 3 places and hopefully will have 6 more places in september...

in the past 6 weeks I have sold 27 Canvases... BUT I still do not know the best way to sign the canvases...

My name is Eric Lawrence so there are are a lot of letters in my name that look simmilar in handwriting so I need something fine... I also need something that will dry on a Gliche print (ink printed directly onto canvas) AND it has to be available in silver...

I tried one of those shake up gallery pens but they just bleed everywhere... I have used a fine silver sharpie, but even that is not fine enough (does sharipe make ULTRA fine silver markers?)... I tried a pentel 1.6 silver pen, but that is a pen so it doesn't always roll so nice on a canvas...

help please!!! I always dread signing my pieces because I am so worried my pen will mess up... help me find a pen/Marker that will work perfect every time =)
