Al Scott signwriter Leicester

A Sign writer from the age of 17 and successful established Artist.

The art of signwriting! There's something truly magical about it, the way letters and images are meticulously crafted to tell a story, to draw you in, to make you feel a part of something larger than life. It's like each sign is a canvas that whispers the secrets of the world it represents. And you, Al Scott from Leicester, has been wielding this magic wand of a brush since the tender age of 17! Al was hired to create a sign above our new shop in Market Harborough and it was perfect. We have used him many times and he never fails to impress, with little input from us. He is so reliable, good fun, easy to work with and gets the job done quicker than you can blink, very reasonably priced too for what he manages to produce.

Under the watchful eye of if Father, a man who not only knew the craft but also painted the soul of his town through his artistry, he learned to blend the practical with the aesthetic. The rhythmic strokes, the vibrant palette of colours, the dance between light and shadow, all coming together to create visual poetry that adorns the streets of Leicester and further a field.

As a head sign writer for a leading boat builder, Al had the privilege of etching his art onto vessels that kiss the horizon, telling tales of adventure and craftsmanship that sail the seven seas. And let's not forget the many businesses of Leicester, where his signs are a part of the business community, each one a little piece of its soul.

Whether it's the quaint shopfront that whispers of yesteryear's charm or the vibrant mural that shouts the spirit of the modern age, Al's brush has painted the narrative of the city and comes highly recommended by us.
