Cuban Café, Cuba, New Mexico. An early-1960s #AtomicAge roadside sign. This "Googie" style has been disappearing throughout the southwest as neon and hand-built steel give way to LED boxes, earwax-colored boxes and corporate fonts. I started this in Fresco and finished it in #watercolor and Copic markers, and it is the first in a new series for the Desert Southwest section of Notes from the Road, hoping to share the passion to preserve.

Let me tell you about an #AtomicAge monstrosity
It wasn't a #nuclear #missile, it was a nuclear *powered* missile. So it could fly almost forever
Do you see the teensy tiny problem?
The fucking thing constantly spewed nuclear #radiation
🤦
Luckily canceled
Constantly irradiating the atmosphere might be slightly bad huh?
Glad to put that in the dustbin of history
Right?
"Russia tested new nuclear-powered #Burevestnik cruise missile"
Fucking #Russia
