Print Club London X Mike Meyer
Mike Meyer at Print Club London from Better Letters on Vimeo.
Here at Print club London we have teamed up with legendary sign painter Mike Myer to create a brand new print!
Mike Meyer is a sign painter from Mazeppa, a small rural town in Minnesota. He has run his own business since 1989 and, as well as hosting many in his own shop, regularly travels the world to attend and support Letterheads sign painter events. He is an ambassador for the sign painting business and, in 2012, his dedication was recognised through an appearance in the internationally acclaimed film, Sign Painters. In 2013 he held his first ever hand-lettering workshop in Christchurch, New Zealand, and this has now gone on to inspire people in dozens of cities, including London, Paris, Amsterdam, New York and Sydney. In his own words, ‘Nothing can replace the ‘power’ of what a brush in your hand can produce’.
Mike works closely with Better Letters who promote signwriting and hand-crafted lettering through artist representation and hands-on creative workshops. Projects have been delivered for Coca-Cola, Craft London, My Warehouse Home, and Sesame, with workshops taking place in locations across Europe, the USA and Australia.

From start to finish this print has been hand-made. Mike painted the lettering himself, the only way he knows how and then it was then re-painted onto tracing paper to create one off positives for us to print with!
Mike also tried his hand at screen printing in our studios!
This print is available from our online gallery here!
