empress
Lynnette Shelley has added a photo to the pool:
Original artwork for sale. Please email redeye@designbyredeye.com with inquiries. View more of my artwork online at www.lynnetteshelley.com
The Empress is often depicted as a Mother Earth / Gaia type of figure, with abundance surrounding her. She herself is often depicted as pregnant, and is both crowned with stars and holds a shield with the symbol of Venus upon it. In this artwork, she holds a pomegranate in her hand, while behind her is a waterfall, and a stylized field of wheat and flowers.
To view some photographs of the work-in-progress, visit my facebook fan page: www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=161310&id=244313711115...
The original is mixed media on pastel paper (liquid gold leaf, liquid silver leaf, oil pastels, colored pencils, marker), about 12.5Ă—19.5 inches.
McGillin's Neon
JKEL has added a photo to the pool:
This is the restored 1950's era neon sign from McGillin's, not the one that hangs outside McGillin's now. McGillin's on Drury St. is the nation's oldest continuously operating tavern.
Wachovia Windows
JKEL has added a photo to the pool:
A Christmas time look at the Wachovia Building's windows. Unfortunately, there was a fire here on Monday and a lot of these windows & frames were heavily damaged in the fire & firefighting efforts.
City Hall beacon
moocatmoocat has added a photo to the pool:
A misty, drizzly night added to the 'search light' effect of Philadelphia's City Hall.
Angelo: the sign maker
RobertFrancis has added a photo to the pool:
While taking photos Angelo offered to let us take his photo. He also told us his story of growing up in Philadelphia, drugs and becoming a sign maker. Said he did the signs for Pat's and Geno's.
