This 5 ft by 2 1/2 ft sign, made of 2 inch thick HDU with a reinforced back structure, uses a sandblasted background (sandstone texture) with elevated letters and an surfer icon (see CA1033 above in this gallery). The icon is done CarvedArt style (see Product Line 2); it has a 3 level sandblast treatment and is then hand-carved and hand-painted. There are thus no appliqués; the HDU is a single piece. All of the lettering is elevated above the sandblasted background and has flat smooth surfaces. This sign was therefore priced at $1000, about $80/square ft. If the icon were omitted or simplified to a Silhouette art icon, the price would have been $50/ square foot, or $625 (without installation or support structure). This photo shows the Proof for this sign.
