Ok so maybe this could be or should be on the portfolio page but I'm soooo excited. The company I work for sent myself and another lady signwriter (Joanne Docherty) out for the last four days to refurbish and repaint this large trailer unit. It's taken us four days to remove some sections of mural and paint new images in and to also repaint all of the paint on the truck. It was last done by Clarkson sign studio seven years ago. It's all enamel br a few vinyl stickers at the front (I even went over some vinyl with gloss acrylic to make it look sharp!) and it's been fantastic fun.
The kicker is that on Monday all the big-wigs from head office will be coming to view the new makeover on the outside and the internal makeover which is a childrens 3D theatre, (Life Education go to all of the schools around the country promoting healthy mind and body stuff.)
After the head honchos look it over Princess Anne will be shown the whole thing too. NO PRESSURE to do a good job eh!!!!
Here's little old me to give you a perspective on the size of the unit.
It has been such a joy to spend four days with barely a sticker in sight!!

Well done kiddo, splashing paint is fun, even better when people pay you to do it. Can't wait to toss some gold around, eh. See ya soon.
