Image #1

Branham High School shows off their California Distinguished School status with two displays on campus. This one, at the front of the school, features sign artist John Espinola’s custom dimensional lettering and the gilding that really makes them stand out.

Espinola cut the letters from 3/4″ MDO plywood and the outlines around them from 1/2″ MDO plywood. The BHS letters have faces painted in oil enamel and 23Kt gold leafing on the outlines. They stand over 6′ tall. Home of the Bruins  is about 8′ long with 23Kt. gold leaf on the faces of the letters and oil enamel paint on the outlines.

The California Distinguished School emblem here has a 48″ diameter. It and the date banner beneath it were cut from 3/4″ MDO plywood and finished on all sides with oil enamel. The lettering and graphics are high performance colored vinyl.
