New signage heading to a collector in NYC
New sign painting on wood paneling, 10x10” each, acrylic + enamel paint.
I saw an advertisement for the film ‘She Said’ on a news website and I liked the text’s ambiguity. It made me think of King George’s song in the Broadway show, Hamilton. (of course in that song the king sings, you say, not he said.) Anyway, I wanted to paint just the words She Said, but when I thought about it it felt as though it could use a partner. So She Said - He Said… seemed like a good fit!

New sign painting up at Forgotten Star Brewery in Fridley, MN. - Sign writing on glass is always a tricky balancing act because your eyes flip between the stencil (located on the front side of the glass) and the surface you’re painting on (backside). This can cause your focus to go in and out as you paint. (sometimes I close one eye to help me to concentrate)..

New sign painting up for the good folks at Naab Machinery Sales. As you can see in the images below the texture of the doors makes the line work challenging. You have to really charge the brush to get the right coverage… but not too much! 😂 It’s a bit of a juggling act.
I’ve got three more garage doors in the works so more to come!

“Ice Cold Drinks” enamel and latex paint, 18.75 x 26.25” 2021
This piece is sporting the Icy caps to help accentuate the cold. I’m probably going to do those again when I get to snow cones. This one is obviously text only but I might do another one down the road with a cup + straw in it. Soda, orange, and grape drink are the first to come to mind.

”Hot Dogs - Plump and Juicy” enamel, acrylic, and latex paint. 18.75 x 26.25”
Things are on a roll here! Since moving to Minneapolis, MN I have been focused on painting signs relating to fairground food, or maybe its carnival food. Are they the same thing(?)
Right now I have twelve food items I would like to address, snow cones, pretzels, corn dogs, etc.
Why the interest in this imagery? Usually when I get an idea I just go with it so that I don’t overthink things. But perhaps I’m feeling nostalgic after being in pandemic lockdown for so long… or maybe I want to indulge in junk food… I’m not sure. Or food relating to entertainment? I told myself that I didn’t want to make art anymore so perhaps these paintings are the antithesis of that statement.
