Recent handpainted logos for .and.provision in Llandeilo. Huge good luck to the boys in their new venture. To say these few days up the scaff tower were cold would be the understatement of the year. I WAS BLOODY FREEZING. heated jacket, hand warmers in every pocket, new thermals top and bottom and two pairs of hiking socks.

All in all - a fun project and great to see yet another beautifully crafted business pop up onto the high street.

Installed this beautiful hand painted shop sign for the team at in Caerphilly who are absolutely smashing everything they put their efforts into. Absolutely stunning food and even nicer customers.

It was lovely to have a little play with their existing logo to bring elements through to the foreground with use of lines and colour balance.

Installed in the minus weathers.

MORE LIKE THIS PLEASE EVERYONE. 🤘🏼🖌

LOTS MORE TO COME FROM THIS PARTNERSHIP WITH THE GUYS FROM BABHAUS.

Recent hand painted signage and brand design for . Massive thanks to Ed for letting me have creative freedom with this one. A few brief conversations about colours and font led to this finished sign.

Now in prime location on Whitchurch road in Cardiff. Give them a follow for all your vinyl record needs.

Cheers to yet again for being my right hand man and helping me install the sign. Always a pleasure to have him on board.

A beautiful traditional shop front deserves some beautifully designed hand lettering......Cowbridge High Street will be very lucky to have .rye added to their list of amazing places to eat within just a few hundred yards of each other. 

I've had a peek at the menu and it looks stunning. I cannot wait to visit. Keep an eye out on their insta page though, I reckon spaces will be booked up pretty quickly.

All branding designed by the amazing - Awesome to meet you Alex.

MASSIVE SHOP FRONT LOGO for coffee and donuts. Painted and double/triple coated within the one day.

Using a mixture of paints for the tricky, highly absorbent OSB and the glass window, I think this idea works well for the brand.

Big, bold and imaginative just like the flavours of their amazing coffee, donuts and Tshirts sold within (my fav is the Halloween RIP 'Coffin' donut).

What do you all think??

I love this 'GO BIG OR GO HOME' attitude.

Stay tuned for more painted stuff at this site.

Absolutely smashed it outta the park with my partner in crime last weekend. Signpainting comedy twosome back at it again......this time a handpainted logo for the new Teals development in Somerset.

Every job has its challenges - this one involved scaffolding, galvanised corrugated cladding, gale force winds and heavy rain on both days.

We managed to triple coat this huge goliath of a painting and are both proper happy with the results.

What do you all think??

I absolutely love the story behind this brand and cannot wait to see what the future holds when they open shortly.

Stay tuned for more painted signs at this site and to see the future of the motorway service station shopping experience unfold.

Recent handpainted logos, window and lightbox for this beautiful new hotspot - in Cardiff.

This font was such a great challenge - as was the gale force winds and inch thick glass.

A couple of handpainted bits and Bob's on the interior and I was good to go. I cannot WAIT to go and test out a few options from their extensive menu. Everything they produce, looks so delicious.

The logo was painted in black and white Oneshot paint from my favourite family run supply shop

I absolutely love the story behind this brand and cannot wait to see what dish they post next.

Sometimes it's the smaller commissions that give me the greatest sense of accomplishment.

Word of mouth has played such a massive part in connecting with new customers on a daily basis. I am forever travelling to new destinations around the UK in order to spread my message and to keep my passion for handpainted traditional signage driving forward.

But a simple knock on the door every now and again makes me realise that I dont have to venture far in order to meet someone who needs me to restore or paint something.

The plaque pictured (before and after), belonged to a Grandad who had it placed outside his drum room. Over the years it had faded and had various different stickers and vinyl lettering placed on top of it.

I lovingly stripped it, primed, undercoated and glossed the plaque before hand lettering it, giving a nod to the original font and finished it with some 24ct gold leaf drumsticks.

This will now be used as the Grandsons new drum room name plaque and is definately one of my favourite things I have been lucky enough to create.

Here are a few shots from Leyshon's Fish shop in Pencoed - my hometown. What a lovely family team they are. Always a pleasure to work with nice people. Paul had a very particular look in mind when he gave me the ideas for the branding. Nice and clean....Nice and simple. 3 windows, 3 classed wall logos and a large chalkboard menu.

Here is the first site that I painted whilst working for again this past week in London.

This is job 1 of 4 completed on Tuesday. Back again next week. London seems to get busier everytime I visit.

Handpainted branding onto existing wooden cladding for garden takeover at pub in Greenwich. What do you all think?

2019 has been an amazing one so far. I am lucky enough to have some beautiful projects lined up for the next few months. Yesterdays 'job' was at Brodies Coffee Co. We had rain, hail, sun and lots more gale force winds. I had 5 layers on including my trusty Milwaukee Tool North America heated jacket and face guard. Their logo is such a beautiful thing to paint - clean as ya like. Next up is a large handpainted protruding sign for the back elevation which will be visible from the high street. Such a lovely thing to paint. Massive thanks for the endless coffees to keep me warm.
