I think the signs look nice, but I am usually not to harsh with my criticisms. It is easy to be an arm chair quarterback and say "you should of...or I think..."
I started out as an apprentice sign painter back in 1977, one thing that has always stuck with me, a piece of advice from a couple old master sign writers..."Never criticize another sign painter's work, because over the years you will do some jobs that you are less proud of also."
It would wonderful if every client had deep pockets so that we could go wild, but most times, especially these days, budgets are very tight, so we do the best we can for our clients with what they have.
