In 1997, Todd turned a crumbling old fruit stand on S. 1st street into an Austin landmark that the New York Times has since listed as a must see. The gallery is most often identified by the iconic “Greetings from Austin” postcard mural on the side of the building. In true South Austin spirit, the mural was painted before the collapsed roof was replaced. Todd has built a career designing and crafti

ng original, entirely handmade neon works with the same care and craftsmanship as the original master sign makers. He calls his style modern vintage, but considers himself a pop artist, sharing an artistic vein mined by Andy Warhol and similar creative talents.

This is what my mornings will soon look like. I’ll miss South Austin, but I turned 59 a few days ago. At this point in my life this just fits. My studio is going up soon, and I hope you come out to see me in Round Top.
