This is John's DriveIn in Kitty Hawk, NC.
This place has been a lunchtime institution during the season on the Outer Banks for probably 30 years. I was more than a little upset when they stopped serving "Tuna Boats" (fried tuna bits and fries in a paper boat). Now they serve "Dolphin Boats" or ocassionally "Trout Boats" I believe there is a bit of the original oil from 30 years ago still in the fryer.

Open in Season. No Public Restooms. I am still trying to create the trainwreck effect. I have not tried starting with a completely black canvas except in one mini blue crab. It may be an approach. I do like the fluid feel of this piece.

Yeesh...I thought you said "DRIVELin." I was wondering what type of place it was. Not happy about "dolphin" boats, I must say. Still, you've captured the mood you describe in your piece, Rick. I am so loving your artist's eye and what flows from it.
