An easy way to get a reasonably smooth area is to first moisten the area you want to paint before applying the paint. This method allows the paint to spread evenly over the surface.
The actual amount of water used will change according to the weather conditions and air temperature. It comes with lots of practice.

Please let me know where I need to improve. This will be matted to an 8 x 10 size (from 11 x 14), so the signature will be in the right place.
