“The Grand Victoria Casino on the Fox River in Elgin, Illinois is a replica of the old paddle wheel steam boats that used to cruise the Mississippi. Attracting high rollers and slot machine customers alike, it offers food, drink, and the excitement to all who like the thrill of one more spin of the roulette wheel. My thrill was the challenge of drawing its intricate and filigreed structure.”
