House Plaque with Jersey Cow Pictorial


House name and number sign with Jersey Cow picture. Painted by House Sign Artist Ivan Brenton. Our customer requested a pretty Jersey Cow's head with those lovely eyes and long eye lashes to be painted on this plaque. We sifted through about 70 images of Jersey cows in google's image search to find the right model for this pictorial. Our sign studio artists think she is the Claudia Schiffer of Jersey Cows!

House Number Plaque with Horse and Jockey pictorial


House Sign with Racing Horse Pictorial. Painted by House Sign Artist Ivan Brenton. Here's a very unusual house number sign we recently completed. The customer's brief was for a racehorse and jockey passing the finishing post with the jockey wearing the owners colours which our customer kindly sent us an example of. I think Ivan has excelled himself with the pictorial - it realy has a sense of speed created by the background.

House Number Sign with Rabbit Picture


Wild rabbit sitting under raspberry bush. Painted by Jean Ellams. Our customer asked for a pictorial showing a wild rabbit sitting underneath ripe raspberries and just the house number.- Shame about the out of focus photo, I must have knocked the camera on its tripod just as I clicked the shutter -and I only took one picture! That will teach me a lesson - Take several pictures just in case!

House Address Plate with walnut tree motif


House Name Sign with walnut specimen picture. Painted by Artist Jean Ellams. Our customer requested a pictorial of leafy branch from a walnut tree showing leaves, catkins and ripened walnuts in their husks. Strictly speaking you would not see all these elements all together on the same branch at the same time as it depends on the time of year when they are on the walnut tree but it looks good. - similar to botanical specimen pictures shown in old botanical books. We use this technique quite a bit for fruit themed pictorials showing ripened fruit with foliage and blossom on a branch.

House Name sign with Tabby Cat Pictorial


House Name Plate with Cat and flowers. Hand painted by House Sign Artist Jean Ellams. This sign is destined for a home in New Zealand. Jean has painted a lovely tabby cat sitting amongst lots of flowers and added a butterfly. The cat is actually looking at the butterfly but you can't see it in this small picture. The house plaque actually measures 14.5 inches wide by 10 inches high. The new shipping cost for this sign's weight to New Zealand has just gone up by nearly £2.80 to £21.75 for Royal Mail Insured Airmail - we will shortly have to ammend all our overseas shipping charges to reflect the rise in postage costs - probably by the end of May.

House Sign with Labrador Dog Pictorial


House Sign with black labrador dog pictorial. Hand painted by housesign artist Ivan Brenton. Our customer requested an oval pictorial scene of a black labradors head in front of a lake with purple mountains and a yellow/orange sunset in the background. I think that Ivan has followed our customer's brief very well and has created a wonderfully coloured background which helps to define the black labs head very well - good job that it was not just a black labradors head portrait without any scenery as it would not have stood out against a plain black background of the base plaque.


Here's the same labrador sign in darkness. This photo was taken with a flash at night to show how our reflective lettering realy stands out at night compared with orderinary paint when a light is shined on them. Notice you can't make out the picture of the dog and sunset scene, but the house name stands out great - All of our house signs have reflective text and numbers for better night time visibility.

House Address sign with daffodils and bumblebee


House Sign with Daffodils and Bumble Bee. Hand painted by house sign artist Sadie Bass. Our customer requested happy daffodils with a friendly looking bumble bee surrounded by the house number and street name, so Sadie created this masterpiece - I think it has a similar happy, sunny impression as in Van Gogh's 'Sunflowers' what do you think?

House Name Plate with Dogs Pictorial. Painted by House Sign Artist Ivan Brenton. Our customer sent us a picture of her three dogs sat together and asked us to paint them onto a large New World Classic Oval house plaque. The sign was ordered as a Birthday gift for her husband. It must have been difficult to keep the dogs sitting still to get the original photo!
