“J. Carley – Furniture and Undertaker”

“J. Carley – Furniture and Undertaker” – Late 19th century. Mixed media on pine. Dad hard at work. Sometimes the signs dad made were so big he had to take them outside😀. As you can see from the pics, it was quite the undertaking. Here, dad was applying last minute glaze and then sanding down to age the sign even further.  These pictures were taken in hopes of compiling a process video for dad.  In his infinite wisdom, dad wanted to create a YouTube channel that would document his style and work ethic when it came to his work.  Unfortunately, it never came to fruition.  If we were able to accomplish that, I think it would have been fun, informative, and exciting to watch.
