Check out this wonderful painting, by Rachel Maxi, paying tribute to Seattle’s own Dick’s Drive-In and evoking Edward Hopper’s “Nighthawks.” It is a recently commissioned oil on canvas, 26″ x 40″. For more of Maxi’s work, visit her here. If Maxi hasn’t made prints of the painting above, she should. It has everything an inspiring and iconic image should have. It makes you wonder who commissioned the work. I think it would make for excellent cover art for crime fiction, maybe some delicious noir mystery set in Seattle.
