Custom Signage: Painted Directional Signs

Since I just finished a couple more of these signs earlier this week, I figured it is past due that I post about the whole project. (I also finally took the time to get some pictures of the finished sign banks.)

This is another interesting project that came my way, because I design and create in a bunch of different mediums. The property is large and directional signs were wanted in order to help people find the buildings they wanted to get to. I was supplied with some old, distressed wood (to fit the aesthetic of the property) and asked to match the font on these signs to other existing signage. I started by cutting out large vinyl stencils to get the uniform font, then finished with indoor/outdoor paint. The signs in the pictures have been posted for over six months now and are still looking great!

My workspace was in one of the old barns on the property and I enjoyed the environment. During breaks, I took some photos of my progress as I was working and the barn where I was working.

I was looking for a unique birthday gift for a friend. I mentioned in conversation that I had been itching to try a new medium I had read about, ceramic/porcelain paint that could be cured in an oven at home. She spoke up & said she thought it sounded interesting. That’s where the creative process started & I think I ended up with a piece as refined as she is. Now, time to enjoy a spot of tea!

Painted Surfboard: Erin

Easily one of the coolest items I’ve ever painted. My friend bought a used surfboard and asked me if I’d consider painting the whole thing with a new theme. It was such an awesome project, I couldn’t resist. My favorite part of this version of it is the base color we chose, that metallic blue paint is so beautiful.

Due to some safety concerns about the board’s original artwork in the water, we decided later to paint it again. This time we chose something that would blend into the environment better. My friend requested that I keep a few elements from the original design for this version.

Both versions are included below.
