Hand painted signage on a piece of luan. Inspired by the book “Creepy Carrots” by Aaron Reynolds and Peter Brown. Published by Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers. This book has become a favorite of my daughters and there is one particular page that really got my attention so…
‘Creepy’, 16.5 x 27 5/8”, enamel, acrylic, latex, and spray paint on wood. 2021
Hand painted signage on a scrap piece of wood. Continuing with the cold theme, I used the same text/font normally used on ice coolers (usually seen in front of convenience stores). 9.25 x 11 1/8”
Now that I have more room maybe its time to start making some bigger work(?)

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.”
