Part of my “Tastes Of Home” series. Nothing represents the Philadelphia food scene better than a Wawa soft pretzel (well, maybe Tastykakes, cheesesteaks, and water (pronounced “wudder”) ice). Wawa is a convenience market that’s located throughout Eastern PA and Jersey – Wawa is slowly expanding – I understand they’ve spread as far away as Florida to cater to Philly transplants. Very loyal following. Great gas prices. Can get your Tastykake or soft pretzel fix satiated. Make hoagies that fill the need until you can get to your local shop. Their soft pretzels aren’t the best, but they’re good – do the job until you can get to the real good ones. Had fun with this painting – lots of detail. And, lots of implied detail. Especially liked painting the little vent holes in the packaging. Just painted the vent holes in front. Hopefully, your mind fills in the rest. My “Tastes Of Home” series celebrates food brands native to Berks County, Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania Dutch Country, and Greater Philadelphia – the area where I live.
