Let's Paint Morecambe: Beginners Guide to Signpainting with Ciaran Globel

[@PaintySniffers]

Probably the best sign painting video on youtube, more like this would be great 👍

[@Arthalot]

Wow this is just packed with information! I've watched so many tutorials and never seen the little bit of tape on the end of the brush - that was so helpful!

[@alansm136]

Love it. I'm a traditional signwriter from South Africa. Started my apprenticeship in 1976. I truly enjoyed watching you.

[@Bhavishah8]

i laughed so had in the ending when you said... " oh F@#! " waahahahahah amazing video man! thank you so much! Wishing you lots of success!

[@ashthomson8332]

I don’t normally leave comments but for this video I had to. The best video by far for beginners, extremely helpful and so relaxing. You manage to inspire confidence before I even begin, I look forward to starting a new road of learning, thankyou.

[@theangrykitten]

Please make more sign painting videos. This was excellent. My favorite instructional sign lettering video so far! ❤

[@xThankYourLuckyStars]

🤣👌Love that ending, thank you xx

[@baxterenrife]

My dad and my uncle were Signwriters. Back then, it was a trade like plasterer or a mechanic. Today there are far less of them and they're all tattoos, beards and woolly hats. Good to see it living on.

[@RebeccaFreear]

You are the Best teacher! Clear demos and explanations, great use of humour, nice presence in the classroom. Grade A

[@RebeccaFreear]

…and that flag!

[@Mike-px8rc]

Thanks for taking the time. Greatly appreciated! Hope you're doing all right.

[@OakLawnSpeedShop]

The twisting to keep the line the same width is a revelation. Thank you.

[@logiemink]

Magic video👍 I was signwriting Aberdeen FC advertising boards in the early 80s and learning the skills then vinyl lettering came in and work dried up and apprenticeship ended but now considering getting the brushes out again

[@vanessarivera9352]

Badass!! Loved the simplistic details! Please make more!

[@AJAYKUMAR-bo8bd]

Best sign board writing video on KZbin. Thanks 😊😊

[@rickfinney7894]

Love your sense of humour. Excellent lesson. Thank you so much. Haven't done this in years, I need to get back and practice.

[@traveshana3699]

Yes I agree one of the best videos here on youtube! the end killed me tho LoL

[@joelongstaff7601]

Sir, Thankyou for a great video. As a stained glass artist I hate painting letters but with your video there might be hope. It's nice to be talked to and not down to. The entire internet could learn from you. Your video seemed like 5 minutes, I'm looking forward to more.

[@allanmercer8044]

Excellent instruction. I've done some sign painting and fine art painting but learning a bit more is always worthwhile.

[@wilmervalles1509]

LOL. "Practice makes perfect". Hahaha. Great tutorial! Love it!

[@creativewestend5693]

Yes! Thank you!

[@FB-rn1bn]

This was just what I needed to learn. Specifics on how to handle the brush. You are an excellent teacher. Thank you ever so much.

[@old_shupshe]

Good video. Don't know if the ending was planned or not, but it was a jewel.

[@slingerland68]

Fantastic! Great video. That flag bit was such a great lesson :) and loved the music too

[@hawsrulebegin7768]

Incredible video for newbies. Well produced and informative. Please do more.🙌🏼

[@martyW347]

Wow its the video I've been looking for, thank you so much🍺🍺🍺

[@nigelparkin9119]

[@Davy.J.Y]

What a fantatsic tutorial. I have been watching sign painting video's all week, i am so glad i watched this one. I might have a go, seems quite tricky though.

[@johnmorgan5495]

Remember " Praktis mykes Purfect "

[@creativewestend5693]

Have fun!

[@esk3686]

Your voice is so calming. I’m starting my job at Trader Joe’s and I appreciate this haha!

[@kingpremo2341]

[@stephanierose9305]

[@stevecanny1583]

Well done Ciaran! Thanks very much for this! :)

[@gibmattson1217]

Brilliant. Thankyou. Just what I needed 😁

Wow! What a fabulous video! Thank you… it’s really so informative.

[@lozmoules2975]

Thoroughly enjoyed your video! So helpful! Thank you. Would love to see some more like this

[@tanner791]

AWESOME!! Love your teaching style. Learning a lot. Please make more!!

[@johnmorgan5495]

Great, clear and straightforward

[@ms.teatree]

This was incredibly useful, thank you.

[@danshandpaintedsigns]

Absolutely wonderful. Great work.

[@Jezz_Mcfly]

Brilliant 👏 Thank you ✌

[@JOELAMOREwon]

Super cool and laid back!

[@tigerzau]

I love the video, thank you! Is there a reason why you choose different widths for each letter: 8cm, 6.5cm, 6cm, etc. Was this for demonstration purposes or do you have the widths of every letter that you think works best, A to Z?

[@andrewarnst9673]

Good tutorial well explained

[@NatIosbaker]

So helpful!

[@bekimelrose6500]

We're glad you found the video useful!

[@paulreynolds9003]

Informative and funny, great video.

[@creativewestend5693]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@kudakwashetsandukwa8542]

Very good paint 👏👏👏😊👉🏆 I want to lean more

[@hikesystem7721]

Great video!

[@JudeMakeUp]

This was so good! Thanks

[@creativewestend5693]

You're so welcome!

[@winzlofttv8108]

thank you for the tutorial...ots WINZ LOFT TV here

[@vonsommerfedlt]

Beautiful stuff and very informative. I picked up sign painting over the holiday (I'll be the 4th generation in my family to do it) but unfortunately due to COVID I haven't been able to get many in-person lessons. I wish I had found this video when it first came out because it took me ~4 months to figure out on my own what you so quickly, accurately, and easily explain here. What do you think about those Kafka Kwills? On a side note: don't give up on KZbin. It really does take a while to get things rolling. I have a channel of my own under a different account and it took me 2 years before I was getting significant reviews and subscriptions. If you need or want any advice/help with your channel, just let me know. Would be glad to assist! Cheers

[@bekimelrose6500]

Hi Cody - we were learning in person but unfortunately due to COVID all sessions we're suspended. But, we were lucky enough to work with Ciaran who made this brilliant and ever so generous video so our community could carry on learning but also we're delighted as even more people can benefit and start learning via the video and internet. Bonus is we have it forever now! Thank you for the feedback and we're really glad you found it so useful and informative. We particularly love how fun it is also. We'll ask Ciaran what he thinks of Kafka Kwills - not used them myself. Thank for the KZbin encouragement - it's a new platform for us. If you have any tips please share with [e-mail] Thanks so much! And happy signpainting!

[@EPHONIC]

Great video. What size brush and brand are you using when doing most of the work in this video?

[@nickalderson4563]

Hi, I haven't checked out your other videos yet but I hope you will mention the importance of letters like O, C, G and S that have to be painted so that they go above the cap height and below the base line to look optically correct. Just saying :)

[@petramartin4614]

Brilliant video, thank you! Shame I didn't see it before I had to paint a sign for someone, but it will definitely be useful for next time (if anyone ever asks me again)

[@MrPatrickBatemann]

for the part you are breaking down the freehand letters in three colors. do you have three diff paint brushes? or are you cleaning the brush and applying diff color paint everytime?

[@kishanchavada4261]

Nicely explain thnx

[@cathedralImages]

What's the series number on the signwrting brush ? Thank you

[@yatessmyrna]

You just scratched and itch, thank you.

[@SunnybraeCroft]

Love it, thanks

[@warmats]

Great video

[@ThomasCanny-x6b]

Ciaran, what’s an inexpensive paint to practice with ? That one shot is rather costly…… thank you

[@leighmarris7035]

Brilliant

[@memofrf]

Thank you.

[@justmarialing]

[@ggowc833]

Sangat mengesankan

[@ralphmason7163]

Hi, are you using a Pro Arte Prolene series 10 brush? What number or size is the brush? I enjoyed the lesson, the tape on the brush handle illustrates the action very well. Regards Ralph.

[@alvaropalazuelos2892]

still waiting for video 2

[@henrymurrell5983]

Hello nice where can I find these brushes

[@henrymurrell5983]

What is the name of the brushes you using

[@Mosey410]

Looks like the Handover 333 I find these work well on real slick surfaces with slightly thicker paint (this is relative) but maybe it’s because at the time it was the right size brush for the job. The brush had a great drag . Great video, havin a sudden craving for some Hamish Imlach .

[@mariaguerrerolopez8256]

Is very nace❤

[@turtles_are]

Might i ask how usual it is for you watching folks from all over to actually handdraw grotesk fonts?

[@turtles_are]

BEAUTIFUL at the very end. Did you handdraw the outlines before? AND: Yes :D!!!

[@adriandrake4208]

Great Ciaran, but your proportions aren’t clear?!

i came here for the sign painting, stayed for the ventriloquist act

[@sureshkumaryadav8990]

I like Singh penting

[@lancewalker1999]

Sometimes when you're concentrating on lettering you misspell. I've done that and it's really annoying. Check your spelling as you letter. Simple but really true.

[@CarlWinter-oy8uf]

Freehand technique is really SCARY ----takes years of practise !!!

[@christinerodriguez4563]

Practice spelled wrong

[@CarlWinter-oy8uf]

BEGINNERS ??? you are kidding surely ?

[@stephencraig7130]

Your technique is amazing. Your tattooed hands are a gross distraction. I'm sorry. I mean no offense. To me, your hands and their ability are sacred. Why junk them up with a bunch of prison tattoos...?

[@shadynasty6393]

Ty for this

[@DavePawson]

Thank you.
