Needed one for me

7/26/2012

For the longest Time we have just had our name and House # painted on our Mail box so I thought I'd better change that or It would be like the shoemakers kids with no shoes.

These are the beginings of the upgrades.
After I designed these The first thing that came to mind is that they resemble the logo on the old Triumph Motorcycles.

Here is the finished product, I wish I had taken a before shot ( it's hard to do a before when youv'e done the after) The saw blade fixture was created about a year ago and I always wanted to embelish it with some thing.
This works pretty well at making the blade stand out.

Here is a shot of the Moat Mountain Smoke house and Brewery Sign I recently created.

After Installation I didn't like the way the "Smoke House & Brewing Co" Text read.
After all that is the most important part of the message.

I tried repainting and changing the colors (which helped) but I still was not satisfied.

So I decided I needed to enlarge the text as much as possible.
The only way I could see to accomplish this was to make a panel with the enlarged text on it and secure it over the smaller text.
And Here are the results. This reads much better from the road at 35mph.

My Goal was to make a sign that the Owner could get 10 years or more out of this sign and I wanted him to be happy with this sign for that entire period of time.

Now I'm Happy and hopefully better educated as to what is really important
on a sign.

This is an on going story of my explorations into the artistic world,chronicling the process of this journey. Highlighting my successes as well as my failures. I'll try not to focus on the failures, but they are what has taught me the most.
I Owe the ability to take this journey to; My Mom
(for she bred in me a drive and creativity required for this type of trip) My Incredible Wife and Children for their support, and to the world of creative people that inspire me everyday.
One in particular is Dan Sawatzky (click here to meet Dan) This Guy has Changed the way I look at things. He is truly an artist and a Visionary with passion.
