Commercial Art

Weston - 10 May 2008

This is as “Australiana” as it gets. The quiet village of Weston amid the lower Hunter coalfields under a glorious autumn sky. This classic country building sports commercial art of mixed message: an Arnotts Biscuits rosella next to a Westons Biscuits name in a suburb called Weston. Splendid.

My Dad was a signwriter, so I appreciate this fine example of precision work on a brick surface.

And October 2006. I know, ‘..chemi?st..’ the stitching software makes fascinating decisions. This pano is too complex to keep re-editing.
