I have not post here for a while and I thought to share this small mural that I finished couple weeks ago. I really did not wanted to do this mural due to the surface was to rought and dents on the aluminu Corrugate Siding. so I did this rought Sketch hopping that the customer would'n Like it. But she did like it.
Then I make a trip to NY while was there I went to see Ms.Bill Riedel and make a comen about it. and he suggest to use Dibond. so when I got back to the shop I call my Customer and explained the situation and after alland she gave me the go ahead so here is the sign anyway. I build a frame at the from of my shop and attached the DIBOND on the frame since the size of the mural was 10'x20' I could not fit inside the shop. this is the way I started Here I'm about to finish the project.
Here is the projet finished and Installed no vinyl was used here

Really, really nice Sal. Don't let your foot slip off a rung when you work a ladder like that. You'll be singing two octaves higher.

Great job Sal, can you imagine how long that same job would take on the corrugated siding?

Sal, while I do like the pictorial panel a lot, and I like the warm orange, your ribbon might have looked better with a curve in it. The main letterstyle you chose is rather bizzare. Usually when I see something like that it is rendered in caps and lower case for better readability. And I liked the "By Laney" better without the outline. But as long as she paid you, and she likes it, that's the main thing. Anything is better than painting on corrugated! Love....Jill
