fairground art

My skills also extend to fairground art and decorative work. Combining the traditions and craft of signwriting and lining with skills in scrollwork and décor has led to my undertaking of work on fairground rides and organs, living and gypsy wagons.

Traditional signwriting

From initial hand-drawn sketch to a hand-painted finish, my extensive knowledge of letterforms throughout history underpins my work in this field. This attention to research is combined with an understanding of colour and composition to craft hand-painted signage.

lining

Undertaken by hand using no tape, I have an extensive knowledge of lining schemes for steam and heritage vehicles and bring this to the fore to undertake lining (often referred to as ‘pinstriping’) work. Authentic and meticulous in execution, lining offers a finishing touch to the restoration of historic vehicles.
