At Last server is working and I can post this just in the nick of time! Signs could mean so many different things but I felt compelled to do this as a homage to a recent trip to London I made with my frend Esme. It felt such an adventure and quite daunting trying to find our way around as there were so many signs everywhere yet hardly a street name to be found. This was done with acrylic on bristol board and I'm not sure it has worked out as I wanted it, the paint isn't as fresh and painterly as I would like but the composition was so hard to balance that it couldn't help but become a bit laboured. I definately plan to try something with a looser style next.

WOW! That's a lot of signs. I like the fish-eye feeling of this. Great job.
I like the circular composition, nice work! Lots of detail can become tedious for sure, check out my posting and you'll know I can relate. I like your Citrus, the skewed framing of the Snow Queen and your train is great too!
oh this is so good! and your right to me you had to take it literally... i mean at first i thought ok ill try to draw or paint signs in the sky from God or somthing profound like that... but it just didnt seem right. i love your work!
