While most depictions of neon signs show them glowing at night, I discovered this view of some of these retro roadside beauties in the iconic Tucumcari, New Mexico sunlight. These original oil paintings were made to celebrate the beautiful imagery found during a Route 66 road trip. In any event, the first one, shown above, “Del's Route 66 Retro Neon Sign, Tucumcari”, rather small at 14" X 11", sold as soon as it was dry. I am currently working up some new ones; here's the latest, still available in my online store. “Apache Motel, Route 66 Retro Road Sign” is an 18" x 24" oil on canvas-wrapped panel.
