My daughter Vicki has been travelling around Australia for the past 18 months in a mobile home, signwriting as she goes.

At the moment she is in Waikere. A little town on the Murry River in South Australia not far from Rod Tickles old haunts.

Been there for 3 months now! Stopped to get some paint from the local hardware and they grabbed her, and she hasn't stopped signing the town since.

All HAND PAINTED stuff! She only has a laptop to layout on. No pounce patterns either.

"Dad ... thanks for showing me how to hand draft signs"

Here's a house boat she just did.

-

Her next major project is Gold Leaf and scroll work on a restored Paddle Steamer.

Can't wait to see that!

Dale, Vicki is one of those natural talents you only have to push in the right direction and give a bit of confidence.
