David A. Smith is a traditional sign-writer/designer specialising in high-quality ornamental hand-crafted reverse glass signs and decorative silvered and gilded mirrors. David recently produced a wonderful turn-of-the-century, trade-card styled album cover for popular American singer/songwriter John Mayer.

This film captures the ‘Behind The Scenes’ creation of the 'Born & Raised’ and 'Queen of California’ artwork, as well as 2 unique reverse glass panels, hand-crafted in England by David A. Smith.

Some more progress shots from our 3D type piece for Look See 2012. We laser cut the letters from several layers of 3mm MDF which were then glued together and spray painted. We made the cones from paper we printed with different patterns, then laser cut into circles. I guess we really used this piece as a big fat laser cutter experiment.
