Have a great weekend everybody!
Great first sign.

Great First Sign Old Paint!

2 years, University of Alabama, Commercial art.
Started toying with sign painting at age 14.
Worked 10 years as a billboard painter.
My own business started 1986.
I learned more about sign painting and pictorial art working in outdoor advertising.
Thanks again for the welcome guys!
