Complex Sign

Picture

Simple Sign with Character

Picture
This sign was ordered for a welcome center of a church.  It is hand carved with a textured background that all seems to emanate from the exclamation point.  It is securely and invisibly attached from the front, but can be removed without tools if you know the trick.  The background paint was computer matched from the speckled laminate behind it.
The wood is quartersawn oak so it will stay flat. It is also finished equally on all sides to help with that.

Doctor's Signatures Are Illegible

Picture
This doctor, bless his heart, wanted his signature on the sign in front of his office.  "Do you want people to know who you are?"  "They already know me!"  The joys of small towns!  So the sign was made with a readable semblance of his signature on both sides. 

It was made of oak and painted with the best oil based enamel I could find.  Four coats.  I saw it touched up about six years after it was installed, which is something the doctor wanted to do himself.  I had no problem with that because the letters are carved in.  All he had to do was fill the letters with black paint and roll new white paint (carefully) over the grooves.  Done.

That's the kind of value I really enjoy putting into the products that I make.
