$6,000.00

Waffle House 24/7 is a contemporary masterpiece that places an everyday Southern landmark into the lineage of American art history. Echoing the atmospheric solitude of Edward Hopper and the larger American Realism movement, the oil painting presents the diner as both a familiar roadside icon and a symbol of endurance in modern life.

The scene captures a Waffle House suspended between dusk and dawn: the glowing sun sets on one side of the canvas while a crescent moon rises on the other. This duality of time situates the restaurant as a place that transcends day and night present, always gathering lives under its bright yellow glow. Inside, the silhouettes of diners and workers hum with quiet activity, their presence both intimate and universal.

By elevating the familiar into fine art, Markeidric transforms the Waffle House into a monument of resilience, community, and Americana. This work establishes him as a pioneer of Neo-Classical Americana, fusing traditional technique with modern cultural subjects for collectors seeking both mastery and cultural significance.
