So She Said - He Said… seemed like a good fit!

New hand-painted ‘thank you’ sign ready to ship to a theater in NYC. I saw a show (again) recently and I wanted to show my gratitude for the experience. A thank you card of sorts, for their hard work and dedication during these covid times. So I thought… why not paint them a sign?!
