A couple weeks ago, we had our friends Michelle “Meng” Nguyen and Jeffrey Larrimore in Sacramento to update the hand-painted hours and messaging on our front door.
We’ve collected signs from Meng over the years for both the gallery and our home, and she was also part of our For the Love of Sign group exhibition in Spring 2025. It was especially cool to add her sign painting to our front windows, alongside sign work by George Anzaldo and John Dozier painted on other parts of the glass.
Meng is a Vietnamese American designer, illustrator, and sign painter born and raised in San Francisco. Jeff is a Jersey-born, multi-disciplinary designer who’s just as comfortable working on a computer as he is working with tools. Together, they offer brand, graphic, and retail design, with an emphasis on hand-painted signage and fabrication, working across an assortment of materials.
They’re two of San Francisco’s best, and we were grateful to have them in Sacramento and to witness Michelle do her thing with a paintbrush on our front door.
