This Gallery 1B  displays about 100  of our 2.5-D multi-level relief HDU  signs that have natural scenes, animals or people which are  painted with an artist brush and airbrush by our of our talented artists. We use 1-Shot Famous Sign Enamels for these paintings, which are the best and longest lasting paints in the industry. These paints are UV resistant, and we clear coat them to protect the signs & plaques them against weather , sunlight and graffiti. We have three in-house artists who paint these beautiful works of art. Most of the complex and detailed painting in this Gallery 1B are painted by Jose Santana, our  master artist. It takes two or three times more of an artist's time to paint one of the paintings in this Gallery 1B than the simpler 2.5-D painted signs, many of which are shown in Gallery 1.  Those signs  can be painted with a  mini-roller, rather than  an artist brush and an airbrush , and paint color mixing and shading are not required, so they can be painted faster and consequently have lower prices..

2.5-D signs differ from 3-D signs in that the artwork, borders and text have flat top surfaces, usually three to five levels of relief or elevation, whereas our 3-D signs have rounded or curved top surfaces, like bas-relief sculptures. It is much faster and requires less work to design, carve and paint 2.5-D and engraved signs than 3-D signs, so they are less expensive, but they use exactly the same substrate and paint materials as our 3-D signs & plaques.  Our 2.5-D and engraved HDU signs are our least expensive dimensional signs (about half the price of 3-D HDU or wood signs), but they can be very beautiful, elegant and striking, as the 100 photos in this Gallery 1B show.

Over 70% of the signs and plaques we sell are 2.5-D HDU signs, the rest being wood or 3-D HDU signs or plaques. We show over 9000 different 2.5-D HDU  sign & plaque designs in our 45 Application Photo Galleries. They are very popular and they meet the requirements of most clients. Other 2.5-D and engraved  faux wood HDU signs are shown in Gallery 1A. 

We also make 3-D carved HDU  signs (Product Line 2), 2.5-D, 3-D and engraved wood signs (Product Line 3), and bronze, brass, and aluminum-plated HDU signs & plaques (Product Line 7). These are usually not required for most commercial and residential applications, but add beauty, class and interest to any sign or plaque.  

We also have 45 photo galleries of various application (e.g, farm signs, beach-house signs. military signs, etc.) on this website,  all of which contain 2.5-D signs & plaques. These  can be viewed by clicking on a title in the  gray box in the upper left margin. If you are on a cell phone, click on the 3 red bars on the top right of your screen to see this menu.  Other Product and Application photo galleries can be viewed by using the slider to scroll down that gray box and clicking on a title. 

The custom signs and wall plaques in this photo Gallery 1 have styles that range from formal and elegant to commercial to rustic. Many of our original and creative 2.5-D designs are true works of art. After all, we are "Art Sign Works". We can also incorporate your design concepts, including logos, seals, photos, paintings, and drawings into the design of your sign or plaque. Most of our designs shown on this website  are the result of a collaboration between our designers and the customer. We can turn nearly any artwork into a beautiful and unique custom dimensional sign or plaque.

If you are looking for a specific application for a sign or plaque (e.g., lawyer, CPA, business, residence, vacation home, park, golf course, church, ranch, restaurant, pub, government seal, military crest, college, etc.) you can click on one of our Application Galleries in the numbered gray boxes in the lower left margin. You can go to our Photo Gallery Overview page for a complete index of these applications. Over 9,000 2.5-D HDU signs are shown interspersed with types of signs & plaques (in Product Lines 2 through 7)  in  application Galleries from Gallery 10 to Gallery 35; only a small sample ( 2% ) of our 2.5-D signs are shown on this page. After the title on each photo, the Gallery where other similar signs for the same application (e.g., beach and seashore signs) are shown is listed in parentheses. Please click on a numbered title in the gray box in lower left margin to visit an Application Gallery (scroll down to see all the Galleries).

OUR HDU SIGNS ARE MADE OF THE FINEST MATERIALS, AND HAVE LONG LIFE & MINIMAL MAINTENANCE.  We use the very best materials and manufacturing processes to create signs which have a very long life (20+ years) and require very little maintenance. We provide a warranty of 2 years, and we expect our HDU signs to last for several decades. We carve our HDU signs and plaques out of premium ultra High-Density-Urethane (HDU) Precision Board Plus sheets  made by Coastal Enterprises, in Orange, CA. We use 20 lb/ft3 HDU for all our signs & plaques, which is 30% denser and stronger than the 15 lb/ft3 HDU used by other sign manufacturing companies. Our signs carve cleaner, last longer, and are less susceptible to impact damage than HDU signs made by other companies. We use  Ultra Low VOC  Matthews automotive-grade 2-part polyurethane acrylic paint  and clear-coats, which are UV and graffiti resistance, so there is very little fading when the sign is exposed to direct sunlight, and graffiti can usually be cleaned off with acetone. Matthews paints cost $230/gallon, compared to house paints which cost $40/gallon that most other sign companies use. Matthews MAP will last  20 years or more before re-painting. We use 1-Shot Low  VOC Oil-Based High Gloss Lettering Enamels for text and artwork. 1 Shot is simply the best (and most expensive) lettering enamel in the world. It also costs $250/gallon.
