Completely smitten with the Sign Painters project Jay B Sauceda, a match made in heaven of photography and typography.

Have you seen the City of Philadelphia Mural Arts Program? I think you’ll love them as your post reminded me of them. http://www.aloveletterforyou.com/

Nice, I think the very faded third one down is my favourite. Congrats on the 1000 posts!

Glad you dig my work! It’s labor of love. I love type!

I hate to see these paintings fade away, but their quality is half of their charm!
You may like this short documentary about one of the few mural painting companies left in New York: http://vimeo.com/11175747
I think it’s shot really well :)

I love photography blogs. That lawn chair photo is just something amazing. I wish i could shoot like that with my D40. I mean you captured some great stuff. Did you use a UV filter for that shot?

The photos are by Jay B Sauceda (http://www.jaybsauceda.com/gallery/personal/sign-painters/) so I’m afraid I don’t know! x

these are lovely. i don’t know why i hated typography classes so much during art school, love it now and wish i’d paid better attention in classes..
