About Us

The Sign Artist is a full-service sign and graphics shop based on Marco Island, Florida, built on a simple idea. Every sign should be made with the same care you would want on your own front door.

We keep the whole process under one roof, from the first sketch to the final install. Our team designs, prints, fabricates, and installs in-house, which means no handoffs and no compromise on quality. With large-format printing and CNC fabrication on site, everything is cut, printed, and finished to spec by the same people who will stand behind it.

Our work spans vehicle wraps and paint protection film, boat graphics and marine lettering, dimensional and HDU signage, banners and aluminum panels, custom substrates, channel-letter fabrication and installation, backed by full custom graphic design.

Working in Southwest Florida, we know what it takes to make graphics that hold up to the sun, the salt, and the road. We use premium, industry-proven materials because a sign is not just decoration. It is how the world sees your business.

Whether you are a local shop, a contractor, or a boat owner looking to turn heads on the water, we would love to build something for you.

Meet Our Team

Bryan

Owner

I started young. At 16, I was running The Auto Artists out of Ohio — a detail shop where I cut my teeth on window tint, vinyl wraps, ceramic coatings, and the occasional spot graphic. I learned fast that the work I cared most about wasn't just making vehicles shine; it was the precision and craft of working with vinyl and turning a blank surface into something that turned heads.

So when the opportunity came to purchase The Sign Artist, I took it. Right before my 18th birthday, I packed up and moved to Marco Island to take over the shop. Three years later, at 20, I've built it into a full-service custom sign and wrap operation — everything produced in-house at our Front Street location.

Today we do HDU dimensional signs, vehicle and boat wraps, storefront graphics, banners, CNC fabrication, large-format printing, and custom design work for clients across Marco Island, Naples, and Southwest Florida. The detailing days taught me that quality is in the prep and the details — and that mindset is in every sign we hang and every wrap we install.

When you work with The Sign Artist, you're working with someone who's been hands-on with this craft since before he could legally vote — and who treats your project like it's rolling out of his own shop. Because it is.

Dominick

Installer

Dominick leads installation at The Sign Artist, and he brings a Buffalo, New York work ethic to every job — show up early, work hard, get it right the first time. That northern grit translates into clean wraps, tight graphics, and signs that go up straight and stay up.

As lead installer, Dominick handles the hands-on side of production: vehicle and boat wraps, storefront and window graphics, dimensional sign installs, and large-format application. He's the guy making sure what comes off the printer and out of the shop ends up looking flawless on the customer's vehicle, building, or boat. Precision, prep, and patience — that's the standard he holds, and it shows in the finished product.

When you see a Sign Artist install done right, odds are Dominick had his hands on it.

Gabby

Graphic Designer

Gabby moved her whole life from Chicago to join The Sign Artist, and we're glad she did. With a major in Applied Communications Studies and a minor in graphic design, she brings a rare combination to the table — the creative eye to make a design pop and the communication instincts to understand what a brand is really trying to say.

As our graphic designer, Gabby is where most projects begin. She takes a client's idea — a rough sketch, a logo, or just a conversation — and turns it into a polished, production-ready design. Vehicle wrap layouts, storefront graphics, dimensional signs, banners, and full brand identities all run through her. That PR background means she's not just making things look good; she's thinking about how a design lands with the people who'll see it.

Creative, sharp, and dialed into the details — Gabby makes sure every project that leaves the shop looks every bit as good as the client imagined.

Leo

CNC Operator


Leo leads CNC design and manufacturing at The Sign Artist, turning digital files into precision-cut, production-ready work. His craft started in Brazil, where he ran his own shop before bringing his skills to the U.S. He spent eight years in Miami specializing in ADA and Braille signage—exacting, code-driven work where accuracy isn't optional—before making the move to Naples to join our team. That blend of artistry and precision shows up in everything he fabricates, from dimensional signage to custom CNC projects built start to finish in-house.
