Queen for a Day Painting

I'm inspired by mid-century neon signage. It's an exploration of that era, it's letterforms and design as roadside attraction. Sadly, the signs of this type are being taken down and replaced, but there are a few owners and organizations preserving these icons of the past. I find that weathering and aging of architecture is fascinating to me and there are many fans of this type of imagery. The sign, juxtaposed against a brilliant sky shows off it's spunky design in all its glory. I chose to portray this classic pop culture icon in watercolor on paper. While I do enjoy realism, I still include an unexpected element of the painting medium reminding the viewer that it's still a painting.
