whats the old school brush painting called and who still does it?

Inkblots 55 - your dad is a cradit to the craft , good stuff.

Safariknut - I never get tired of seeing your work , thanks for sharing .

 

I'm ruined for the next few days while I go through the entire site. Awesome.

 

Thanks Philly, My Dad p***ed away a few years ago. I inherited his paint box full of brushes and One Shots, I treasure it. Here's a few more shots of his work.

 

By the way Philly, i checked your site, PHENOMENAL STUFF!

 

we have a guy. Very reasonable and does cool stuff. He's a HAMBER

 

YES. Very nice work.

 

Does Richard Victor live in Iowa now? There is a "Victor" that I talk to every now and again that is a sign painter. I have only talked to him over the phone and he is a super nice guy, and willing to give tips and tricks. He lives in Iowa but travels to Omaha quite a bit. Just wondering.

 

Out here in So Cal were lucky to have Dennis Ricklefs he has done several cars for us over the years and its amazing to watch him work....here are two cars our old school ford and our 64 G***er///

 

Northeast...Dale Flewelling at Artattack signs. Absolutely phenomenal handpainted signs, striping and airbrush work. For those of you on facebook just look up his name.

 

I sold One Shot sign paint for over 40 years and have met many talented guys in the sign business,some also did pin striping.

It seems that most sign painters I dealt with were characters and marched to the beat of a different drum but when it came to their trade I was in awe.

I remember the late Roy Littlejohn telling me vinyl signs were going to be the death nail of old school sign painters because you could teach a monkey how to use a machine but you can't teach someone without talent to be a sign writer.

Here is some work by Charlie Tyre. HRP

 

This is our 35th year striping and lettering. Where does the time go?

 

Congratulations on your 35 years ! It's been a few years since this thread was posted , and I'm still painting , lettering and striping , and loving it everyday !!

 

We are lucky to have two of the best in wichita. Sign works is the company's name. Nadine and Chad do the best that I have seen!

None other than Ed Roth was a signwriter/sign painter. He did much of the signwork at Knotts Berry Farm.

 

One of the best around....ANDY LOOMIS....hails from Pheonix......to Maine in the summer. Travels about from various shows. Does work for BO HUFF......he's good...real good

 

Anybody got a number for Andy Loomis, lost touch and his number.
