“Jimmy John’s Pipin’ Hot Sandwiches” Watercolor Painting by Nick Santoleri 2019

Jimmy John’s Restaurant with its Famous for Frankfurters logo, has been a beloved site in the West Chester area since 1940. The roadside family favorite is known for its pipin’ hot sandwiches, great service, and electric train display.  “Painting this watercolor brought back some nostalgic images of Jimmy John’s for me.  As a child, I loved the trains and all of the old photos on the walls. I confess I had some fun with this painting… see if you can spot some things hidden within the picture.” The original watercolor has been reproduced in an open edition signed print in two sizes and printed on 100 lb. high-quality neutral pH balanced fine art paper.
