Source: Hand painted Wall of a tire and automotive shop
Classification: Sans Serif , hand painted
Description: Hand drawn and hand painted sign , the typeface is very traditional " american" , i like the chiseled look of it and the imperfections , the cross of the "R" and "E" don't match , which is visually bothersome but i think it works because the s is also somewhat off. The whole thing has a very nice feel .
Influence: i appreciate the duotone appearance of the type, as well as the "3d" effect, which isn't very realistic but seems time appropriate , kind of like chrome. I like this work a lot because i am very interested in hand painted signs an learning to do them.
