Tracked down this non-SLUTO mosaic here in #Philly today. This is close to the similarly-framed SLUTO rose I posted a few days ago. I reached out to Sluto and he said it must be someone borrowing his style, which makes sense because he usually signs his stuff.
Kinda glad I didn’t have to excavate this one lol
Also while I was there I saw a Coal Train moniker passing over, but I think a few people have stolen it these days…

Now that we’ve covered the basics of #toynbeetiles I’ll introduced a more advanced feature: the dial. A dial is really just a circular feature with one or more notches cut into it. In the picture below, there are three dials: red with a yellow notch, blue with a red notch, and yellow with a white (?) notch.

This tile is a prime example of what I call “laddering”. It’s those rectangular series of windows cut into the other tile features.
One of the projects I’m working on right now is building out a glossary of terms we can use to talk about #toynbeetiles better
