About

All Good Signs is Alina Radetsky—an artist and sign painter with a background in house painting and decorative finishes, plus formal training in graphic design. After working with Noble Signs, I founded All Good Signs in Portland, Oregon in 2017. Today I create hand-painted signs, art, and lettering for businesses across the Pacific Northwest & beyond.

Approach

I enjoy celebrating the classics in the modern era, beyond passing trends – designing thoughtful, well-considered communication built for both art and function. From concept to installation, each project is hands-on and detail-driven, shaped through a collaborative process for new and established brands, small businesses, and one-off custom commissions. Traditional sign painting brings it all together for me: rooted in place, seen day after day, gathering life and character over time, and becoming part of how a place is recognized and remembered. The goal is lasting curb appeal and community: signs that feel inviting, weather beautifully, and support your business.

Services

I offer a range of painting, fabrication and design services, including:

- Hand-painted signage: storefront/window signs, address numbers/transoms, vehicle lettering, a-frames/sandwich boards, interior/exterior wall signs, murals, and restoration work

- Fabrication: custom-shaped signs, menu boards, window displays, panels, and hanging signs

- Brand + graphic design: identity, logos, retail/environmental graphics, way-finding, type design, art direction, print, packaging, digital, naming, film

- Gilding: surface and glass gilding (gold leaf)

Materials

Wood, glass, metal, aluminum composite panels, acrylic, and other smooth or textured surfaces – chosen to suit the job and where it will live. I use enamel and water-based paints and custom-mix/match colors in collaboration with clients. Clear coats and anti-graffiti finishes are applied as needed.

Pricing

Pricing varies depending on size, materials, color palette, complexity, and whether design services are needed. I take time upfront to understand the project scope and timeline, then follow up with a realistic quote. Once we’re aligned, a 50% deposit confirms the project and kicks off production.

Shop minimum: $350

This covers studio time and baseline material costs. With your project goals and budget in mind, I’m happy to talk through options and determine the best approach.

A-Frames / Sandwich Boards: start at $700

Each a-frame is built from scratch from marine-grade plywood—cut and assembled in-house, edge-treated and primed for long-term durability, then finished with multiple coats of paint and hardware. Graphics can be painted from your provided design or one I create. A-frames are a practical, high-impact way to guide people into your space or event. They can be custom cut to your preferred shape and size, the standard is 24” x 36” ( about a 20” x 30” art area).

Permits

Some signage requires permits depending on your city, building, or landlord. If permits are needed, the client is responsible for obtaining them, but I’m happy to share specs or info you may need for the application.

Thank you for your interest!
