New a-board for Storm Castle Tattoo in Bozeman, MT, and a fresh tattoo while I’m at it. I love trades. Tattoos, food, and coffee are the top three trade categories for me to trade for sign work. #handpaintedsign #tattoo #tattooshop #pirate

New thing, relevant to our times.

Couple quick prop signs for a performance of “Neverending Story” for Butte’s children’s theater. Top sign will be in the school, bottom in the bookshop.

And with some gold and a little bit of paint. More good, and some abalone shell tomorrow.

Tried a Butte design for my next glue chipping practice piece.

Got some gold down on the glue chipped glass from my previous post. Gold makes everything better.

Practice makes better. Now to put some gold on this. More glue chipping action in the future!
