Hi Gail, There is a lot of see-sawing opinions about watermarking. Some Fine Art Galleries and Exhibitions don't allow watermarking, they say it turns off collectors.. But I've seen these past 5-10 yrs that there has been a shift towards watermarking. Some organizations insist on it now. I believe it has become a necessity. Artwork can be copied via screenshots so not metadata can be attached, and theft seems a bit more rampant nowadays. I can't say I like to look at artwork with a watermark plastered over the good part, but I do it regardless. When a collector contacts me, they don't usually ask for a non-watermarked large version so they can see detail. My 2.5 cents, Linda ____________________________ Linda M. Feltner Artist LLC P.O.
