Lost Art Press Sign
This is a recent commission for Lost Art Press. They needed a new handmade wooden sign for their tradeshows. The sample was used to make sure that they liked the design and I am just starting on the full size sign. It is approximately 36″ high. It is loosely based on British Pub signs from the 1700’s. Most were painted but this one will be carved.
The top will have a pin for a removable finial. As part of this job I will also carve a traditional carved pineapple, a beer mug and martini for starters. They will swap out the finials based on their mood.
German Club KristkindleMarkt
This was my first foray into selling my work in a public space. The Dayton Ohio German Club was a perfect venue to start off in. Lots of great food and drink along with a really interested crowd. This picture was in the Dayton Daily News about the event.
