How to choose a Chinese art signature you can actually write

Legibility, stroke count, and practice matter more than decoration.

An art signature is still a signature: someone has to write it more than once. If the structure only looks good as a drawing, it will collapse at normal speed.

Ask for one direction that keeps the character shapes readable, and one that is more connected. Choose after you have tried both at a normal pace.

This studio does not promise that a bank, notary, or website will accept the result. An art signature is not a legal instrument.
