Specializing in Hand-Painted Signage

California Sign Painting Company — formerly known as El Sapo Studio — brings the same dedication to hand-painted signage, thoughtful design, and skilled execution. The name has changed, but the craftsmanship remains.

California Sign Painting Company is a collective of highly skilled and experienced sign artists dedicated to delivering exceptional work rooted in tradition. We specialize in hand lettering and custom graphics, using both time-honored and modern techniques to create signage that is not only functional but visually distinctive.

We offer creative, custom sign solutions for corporate, industrial, residential, and nonprofit clients. Our capabilities range from traditional brushwork and genuine gold leaf to precision vinyl and cutting-edge digital methods. Every project is approached with deep respect for the craft and a commitment to quality that stands the test of time.

There is a unique beauty and authenticity in traditional sign painting that mass-produced alternatives simply cannot replicate. Hand-painted signs have a warmth, texture, and character that draw the eye and elevate the identity of a business or space. They tell a story — one built on craftsmanship, detail, and lasting visual impact.

We take pride in our dedication to skilled execution, thoughtful design, and attentive, personalized service. At California Sign Painting Company, we are passionate about preserving the art of sign painting while continuing to push creative boundaries.

Let our experience and artistry work for you.
