Hi Carl....nice to see yet another sign painter here! I'm in my 32nd year as a sign man....crossing over into studio painting, as well. I spent half of those years as a BB guy and Walldog. Loved it! Eller Outdoor, Foster & Kleiser, Gannett Outdoor, then on my own a few times with a small central Cal shop.

On my hours in the studio.....Michele....I too find I can not only stand no more than 5 or 6 hours at a time. Reasons are physical pain (neck, back, hands, legs falling asleep) and also the visual/mental burnout from looking at stuff too long and doing stuff that is not too smart sometimes. Ha! Then I come back and have to sand and paint over.
