Its nice to see you getting back on your feet again Peri, I know you had a whole load of crap to deal with after we all met in Greece.
With a talent like yours and the passion you have for your work it was only a matter of time before you'd bounce back.
Good luck with everything now.
All the best,
Henry

What beautiful work, Peri- but the spelling!!!
Do you do mostly greek or an even number of greek & english signs?
Thanks for posting those pictures.

I love your work Peri, it's very inspiring.
Posted by Cody Reich (Member # 8052) on :
Top of the line work. Very nice.

Peri,
It's so good to see you posting again. We've missed you!
Like Henry says, you're a real tallent and we appreciated and enjoyed your hospitality while there, and seeing your creative work. Your old shop was a treat to see. I got so many good ideas on about setting up my buiness.
The new company building looks more like you. What a nice place. Keep up posted on the progress with it.
Since your last post, there's been more interest with CNC's. It's refreshing to see how you use yours. Your design ad gilding is excellent.
Good luck with your life and keep posting.

Very cool looking building, and awesome design gold and silver leaf works on your projects.

Welcome back Peri! Please keep posting your work. I have always found it very inspirational. You have a unique style that is definitely upper class! I think "clean and elegant" are words I would use to descibe it. I also really like your mounting ideas, they always seem to be so suitable. That building is great! I really like the show window with all the samples of your work. I hope there are plans to replace your sign with something that is more representative of the top notch work you do. There are empty panels all over that building just begging for your creativity. I hope the road ahead is clear so you can focus on your talent!

Peri, it's great to hear from you. You are the best in both personality and talent. Please give my regards to your beautiful family.

Glad to see you're having continued success. Your work is exceptional.

I cannot see a picture of a Periandros sign and not STOP DEAD in my tracks to admire it. Each detail of the sign, the clean layout, the brackets holding it up, the way it is lit all are well thought out and truly inspirational.
I love Periandro's passion which shines through every single project! I look forward to meeting him soon! I think we will be instant and life long friends!
Welcome back to Letterville!

Welcome home my Friend. Letterville is certainly about beautiful signwork, but the People are just as important.
Let's face it. Once the glamour, the recognition and all the other fuzzy warm feelings that come with being being a Letterhead pass, we all have real lives.
Real life is roller coaster ride of ups and downs. It's easy to be positive and excited when times are good. Not so easy in the times everything you attempt ends in failure.
We've had the opportunity to meet many of you that fall by the roadside, yet somehow manage to pick yourselves up, dust yourself off and get back on the road.
There's a saying the "Tough Times Never Last...Tough People Do!" Thanks for reminding us.

Wow… that’s all that really needs to be said… Wow. Beautiful work.
That’s one awesome shop you got there too. I’m jealous. I wonder how much it would cost in window blinds alone…

I am also glad to hear you have made it through tough times too. It is very hard to keep strong, or to regather your strength sometimes. You know what tho? It produces some good character in us, & enables us to help others when they face it.
