Hello. 2024 Vintage Hand Painted sign for sale. I am a classically trained fine artist making a living as an artist for the past 20 years in New England.
Years ago I started collecting old wood planks from various sources. This "BEWARE OF ROOSTER" sign is made from an old recycled palette plank. Shiplap pine to be exact.
I take my time to hand paint every sign I produce. Each is unique, and, like a painting, each is a piece of artwork that I took much time and effort to make. I DO NOT stencil, use vinyl letters or spray paint anything (not that those are necessarily bad qualities, but you get what you pay for).
I layer on very thinned paint with several layers until I get the effect I want. By using this process the paint stays translucent enough to let the wood and oxidation seep it's way back to the surface. Any knots, rusty nails (please be careful), nail holes, water or insect damage are all incorporated to personalize the piece. I further distress using my own recipe and techniques, sorry I can't disclose, this isn't HGTV after all :)
A final coat of furniture wax is the only finish needed. These are not meant for outdoor use, but if need be a final coat of polyurethane or shellac could be applied.
I use a keyhole plate in the back for secure hanging. I don't use a saw tooth hanger because they can easily be accidentally bumped off the wall.
If you buy it please enjoy. You have a one of a kind item.
