I've been sign painting now, for 35 years myself. Educated in art school in Chicago as well. My father was a sign painter for many years too. This video is the best documentary on the industry I've seen to date! I wish this gentleman & family all the best!

Yep...I did a 5 year apprenticeship in Portsmouth, England in 1965 and still doing it to this day. Along the way Iv'e learnt airbrushing, computer graphics, murals, canvas painting and loved every minute of it...most commercial craft on Earth, always somebody wanting something done and never been short of orders.

People are visually exhausted from digital perfection. The human being has imperfections and this is perfect as it is. Greetings from Chile.
