       Jeepneys are a popular mode of transport in The Philippines, and last year I profiled the decorative work that adorns them. This includes a wonderful documentary film by Esy Casey.http://bl.ag/jeepneyToday I found this video about a sign painter that produces the destination and other functional/directional signage for the Jeepneys. It shows the painter at work, including his tools, materials, and techniques.https://yewtu.be/watch?v=YWyXVyD1Hdw#SignPainting #philippines  #jeepney #signs
