Todd Sanders is a self-proclaimed urban archaeologist. In fact, he is an artist and designer whose specialty is 20th-century popular culture. He spent the first half of his life living in the 20th century. He plans to devote the rest of it celebrating the true essence of 20th-century American popular culture.

Growing up in Montgomery, Texas, his mother was an artist and his father was a master metal craftsman. Todd was obviously influenced by them both, and it is reflected in his art.

Todd gets his inspiration during drives through the country, finding and photographing some of the few remaining relics from a time when signs were all original and made by hand. He has perfected his craft by studying the original techniques used by the sign masters of the 1930's and 1940's.

He creates around 6 or 7 works of art a week. So, in a sense, each piece represents a day in his life as an artist. Each piece is signed and numbered by the artist, making it not only a unique and original piece of art, but a collectible and investment.
