    Superb skills and quality of work I really admire. To the commenter who said that the sign artist had painted over the gold and silver leaf; the paint the artist used is Flamboyant enamel which is like tinted varnish that is semi transparent and allows the underlying colour to reflect through the transparent top colour giving the effect of what custom painters call candy apple and gives a rich deep light reflective colour. My friend Paul Wright was a prolific fairground artist using airbrush and spray techniques to create his creative art, sadly Paul passed away but some of his artwork still lives on on fairground rides. I and another friend of mine still airbrush today after doing this type of art for many years, but like fairground art, and signwrighting there are not many people doing this type of hands on work these days, but it is good to see some younger people are now taking up this type of art and interpretating the art into there own styles but still using the traditional techniques.

    Not only did they restore some of the artwork round the top boards, they also replaced the lamps in the amusement lights with warm white LED's, and earlier this year they replaced the lamps there above the horses with LEDs as well🙂

    Beutifull work,Ive watched this several times ,Ive been sign writing for 3 years now. I was wondering why you painted over the gilding. Does it provide a certain affect ? Or does it increase durability or lifespan? Thankyou love your work and would love to see more. Cheers,from America.

    Brilliant, I tried signwriting years ago during my time as a coal man where I lettered the lorries, and the odd shop front, but just basic lettering, shading etc, but I was cursed by not having an artistic eye, I could only do basic and plain lettering, but this is something else, top class signwriting, even in bricklaying you can tell if someone is artistic, their brickwork, pointing etc is immaculate, because they have the artist in them, and it shows in the work, BLACKPOOL PLEASURE BEACH,signwriter you're work is amazing.

  • @tomwatson2430
    @tomwatson2430 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have got a real admiration for the dying art that is now airbrushed and does not come close to the craftsmanship of the work you create!.respect and I never thought I would find other people interested in the talent and I would be interested to know more about how you became involved and if you are interested in teaching an apprentice?. I've always been interested in cartoons and graffiti but I'm wanting to be trained in the style of sign writing you are excellent at,respect from Huddersfield

    What was the point of the silver leaf if it was painted over.

    • @sallac8243
      @sallac8243 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The paint applied over the leaf is called Flamboyant, it's slightly translucent. This allows the leaf to show through the finish. There's a bit more too it than that but I hope that explains the reason.

  • @robertkinholt621
    @robertkinholt621 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Why waste all the Gold and Silver leaf by brushing over it?

    • @jeffknight3916
      @jeffknight3916 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I AGREE However the paint could be transluscent to show off the silver underneath

    • @GoldenWestSignArts
      @GoldenWestSignArts 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Its a technique called Flamboyant painting....a very cool technique of painting transparent glazes over the aluminum leaf to make it "glow".
