| An Original Acrylic Painting on Canvas This Painting has a very definite snowstorm, windy, cloudy feel to it! People are running in the foreground. Kids are building a snowman in the alley, about 11 people shown Street lamp is glowing on the far right (not shown in picture). A very fun look and feel to this painting! |
This original took 4 months to paint! I looked at many old
photographs from roughly the 1938 time period.
Many street signs including:
Merit Cut Rate, Dairy Maid, For Rent sign, Seafood Shop sign,
Coca Cola sign, "The Grapes of Wrath" Bill Board sign
Look close again and you will see -
Shops on the street that include:
Fruit 5 Star Store, Bell Telephone Company, a church, restaurant,
Movie Theater playing BoysTown (poster shown also) spencer Tracy
plus another sign with Jezebel (poster shown) Bette Davis coming
soon, a Kresge Co 5 & 10 cents, Rexall Drugs, A & P with signs
including: leg of lamb 25 cents lb, potatoes 10 lb bag 19 cents, Self
Service sign, and Crisco 1 lb. 18 cents and 3 lb 48 cents.
Plus a Bulletin truck - top only showing, cars of the time period and
trucks.
There are many people (30+), and even a policeman directing
traffic in the center of the street.
Oh, and the clock is showing 11:08am under the Hill Co. sign on the
left side.
