Does anyone know of a good instructional book, video or article I can get on this subject. I need to do one at a restaurant in southern CT. They need the artwork to be durable but still want to be able to change pricing etc. I think I can do it in pastel with an artist acrylic base color, but if I have to clear coat it I will have to remove the sign.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I don't have the specifics but there is a particular marker they came out with that people use and I believe it is sold at art stores.

use acrylics and dry brush to simulate the chalk art, or just fore-go the look and paint with one shot.
