Once in a while I have a sweet customer that ask me with the magic words "Do you still do some old school hand painted lettering?" Well, here's my reply...
It takes months after a job like that to wipe the smile off my face!!
Yup, life is good!

Nice work, seems like a dying art eh? A lot fewer suppliers even carry quills anymore. Keep up that great work.

Awesome job Pierre. Seeing that just put a huge smile on my face and is the highlight of my day. Posted by Mark Neurohr (Member # 2470) on :

Posted by Mark M. Kottwitz (Member # 1764) on :
Very nice job. It's a nice clean direct layout.
Posted by Jillbeans (Member # 1912) on :
A timeless uncluttered clean look which will last for years. You can't say that about a wrap! Excellent work, Pierre. Love....Jill
Posted by Deri Russell (Member # 119) on :
Nice work Pierre. That's why I'm coming to boot camp.
Posted by bill riedel (Member # 607) on :
Way to go Pierre, keep the craft alive and well. When asked what the font is, tell them it is one from your own brain and not one found in the books. Bill
Posted by Pat Welter (Member # 785) on :
Great job Pierre...Thats going to be eye catching among all the clutter seen in wraps today...

Great work Pierre!!
Looking forward to January in SC!

Great work Pierre!! Posted by Ricky Jackson (Member # 5082) on :
Did you have to go to school to learn how to do that? Can my son come over on his lunch break and you show him how to do that? Do you do that freehand? Will that wash off? Does it bother you if I watch? I once knew this old drunk signpainter. His hand shook like a leaf until his brush touched that truck. Great job Pierre; that gave me the warm fuzzies seeing that pounce pattern hanging there. Props man!

only fuzzy feeling you get is when your herpes flare up...
Nice job Pierre!! That is SWEET!
Posted by Ian Stewart-Koster (Member # 3500) on :
I'm surprised someone hasn't said this but- I suppose you're wrapped with the look!
Well done- great job & 1950s-60s look!
(shouldn't this thread be in the portfolio section...?)
Posted by Rene Giroux (Member # 4980) on :
No Ian, this doesn't belong in the portfolio because it isn't about showing one particular project, it's about showing the direction that the whole industry has taken...
Posted by Duncan Wilkie (Member # 132) on :
Well done Pierre. Your a great Letterhead ambassador.
Posted by Janette Balogh (Member # 192) on :
Now that's more like it!
Life IS Good!

And to me it says that the trucks owner is also "Old School Reliable". We just don't seem to see enough of that anymore. Great job Pierre! Keep the brushes busy! Don
