Hand Letting & Pinstriping A Truck Door For My Son’s Wedding Gift.

Instead of using a guestbook at their wedding, Jacob and Brianna West (my son and daughter-in-law) decided to have friends and family sign an old pickup truck door. I love this idea!

So, in preparation of the guest’s signatures, I decided to give the door some personalized hand painted lettering and pinstripes. I’m certainly not trying to pass it off as patina or faux-tina, but I wanted it to look the part as if it’s been on the truck for 40 years.

I’ll walk you through the process I did of preparing the 67-72 Chevrolet pickup doors, stripping them down, and laying down the traditional hand painted letters to honor the new family being formed.

Am I a master sign painter or pinstriper? Certainly not, but I’m learning as I go and this video documents my growth. Not all my processes are conventional or traditional; nor are my methods.

I use Alpha6 Enamel paints and Mack brushes in my projects.

This is not intended to be a “how-to” video necessarily: but I do have some videos explaining my processes in other videos. You’ll also find EXTRAORDINARY master artists far above my skill level elsewhere on YouTube.

My deepest love and pride goes out to Brianna and Jacob West, I pray for the Lord’s blessing on their new life together. May they live for Christ and each other till death.

Thank you for watching and for supporting my art and my channel! I’m truly blessed to share my passion and I appreciate the encouragement from so many of you.
