New sign painting in the offices of La Radiant

New hand painted signage at the offices of La Radiant in Midtown Manhattan. 18.5 x 34.5”
“La Radiant is a jewelry design and production company that offers wholesale jewelry lines as well as private label services.” This is the first sign I’ve been able to paint since March due to the NYC quarantine so a big THANK YOU for the support!

It is still quiet in Manhattan but there is some movement (some businesses are open, some people walking around). So hopefully we are on the road to recovery. Fingers crossed…

'In New York, A Hand-Painted Sign Renaissance Is Underway'

Interesting article about sign painting in Brooklyn, NY. The two restaurants talked about in the article are only a couple of blocks from my home.

”When people reopen, people are going to want things that feel like home. And another Helvetica vinyl sign does not feel like home. Industrial design doesn’t feel like home. So I hope that there’s more and more hand-painted signs … I think that there are a billion different ways that sign painting infiltrates our culture, and people haven’t been paying attention that much. But sign painters are still working. It’s an imperative part of how we communicate, and I think that it’s only increasing in value.”

Quarantined NYC: Sign painting at the studio

Hand painted sign on a scrap piece of MDO

‘Twenty four’ inspired by the "When I'm sixty four" sequence in the movie "Yellow Submarine" (a new favorite of my daughter). Someone suggested I was painting the amount of time I am spending at home…. possibly.
