Photo of the Week: Vintage Tattoo

Sticking to the original craft again we have Vintage Tattoo. They don't get caught up in the frills, just a nice gritty font. That is what is so amazing about hand painted signs, each sign can evoke a different emotion or reaction through the font. Last week we showcased a photo that focused on the font as well and it is nearly a polar opposite from what we have this week. Simple details have a huge influence on handmade work and sign painting is no different.
