Global Warming effect with my house sign.

Recently I started a project of painting  a house sign with a view of a snow peaked mountain. The following day, Global Warming had taken effect even on my painting. What a disaster !! :)

Birth of a house sign

ROBBIN'S NEST.

I was recently contacted by a potential costumer who wanted a unique house sign and requested a custom paint job of a robin standing on a nest with four eggs inside of it.  I did my homework, found a few promising images on the internet that I could paint, created a proof of what the sign would look like, and got the OK.  This was to be a double sided sign hung up by a wooden post outside her lakefront home. The pictures below depict different stages along the journey of creating this beautiful sign. 

Sophisticated was the first word....

   Sophisticated was the first word out of my costumer's mouth when I presented her with her hand made, custom finished house sign. Her face lit up when she held the sign in her hands. Her exact words were " you Sir created this sign with a heart beat behind your every move", and she was right. I was asked to push my boundaries and create an aged, weathered, battered looking house sign.

Sold!!! Sold my first hand carved custom sign on Etsy

I finally broke the ice with Etsy and sold my first house sign. This lovely lady contacted me and requested a custom sign that was similar to one already displayed on my Etsy Shop.
I decided to post our conversation because it gave me great pleasure to see other people appreciating hand crafted signs made by me.

Hello, I am hoping that you can make me a custom sign using the attached images. Please let me know if this is possible. Thank you. Kathy

Hello Kathy,
The sign that you are looking for could be made.
My signs are all hand carved and painted by hand instead of being carved by a CNC machine like most others, thus my signs have character.
What is your desired size for this sign? Will it be a single or double side?
Thank you.

And Kathy's answer...
The fact that your signs are hand carved is why I wanted you to make mine. They look awesome.
I was looking at the Bear Sign, which is 12" x 20". Would that size be okay. Just one side will be fine.
Thanks.

Kathy

The smile is still on my face.

Steps for creating a hand carved and painted custom house sign

A couple of days ago, I finished another custom house sign. It was hand carved and painted on a piece of wood out of oak that measured 18" x 13". Added pictures and a Youtube Video on my Facebook Page (www.facebook.com/housesignsguy) along with my website (www.housesigns.webs.com)

Here is the Youtube Video:

After I finished meeting with my clients, I decided to walk up and down the streets of Alexandria, VA and here are some of store-front signs that were displayed outside. Alexandria is one of the most beautiful cities I have seen on the eastern coast. 

What are some of your favorite cities?
