During the pandemic, I rediscovered my passion for researching and writing about #signs and #signpainting—I got the #ghostsigns book into print, and The Showcards Book (see earlier toot in thread).

With no print magazines serving the sign painting trade, I developed the idea of a new print and online publication.

BLAG was born, and is now on its third issue: https://bl.ag/03. It takes an international view of the trade, and every article/issue is a pleasure to produce.

Over the years I have also helped numerous agencies and their clients to find and collaborate with #signpainters and #lettering artists around the world.

This is a sampling of some of the projects that I worked on as producer, and I'm always open to new briefs where my skills and network could be beneficial.

I don't really plug this page of my site, but it has a load more images of projects I've worked on: https://bl.ag/portfolio/

The reaction to our film about Cliff (previous toot in thread) led to producing three more about retired sign painters: When Better Letters Met...

- Josef Samuel, Vienna, Austria;
- Stan Wilkinson, Wokingham, UK;
- Barbara Enright, Sydney, Australia.

Funding for these productions came from Colossal Media and Right Way Signs of Chicago, and my time was voluntary—I'd love to commission more via BLAG in the future.
