A new firm, Signature Art Medals, has been established to create medallic art in desirable collectable formats at a price which will appeal to most people. Newly commissioned medals, created by the most talented medallic artists, will alternate with high fidelity replicated classic medallic art of the past, where the original formats will be honored. In each case new medals will be in unique size and compositions.

February 25, 2010 Cooper Union Address Anniversary at The Great Hall of The Cooper Union, Manhattan.
Signature Art Medals is looking for an Abraham Lincoln bas-relief portrait rendered in modern art style. Because almost every known relief portrait of Abraham Lincoln is smooth skin / wild hair that this has become a pictorial cliché, along with the stovepipe hat. What could be more appropriate than a Lincoln portrait made of...logs...(in an anthropomorphical design).
