El Camino Art Car

ElCaminoYoSoy Art Car

Spent the weekend with friends in San Francisco who are building an art car out of an Chevrolet El Camino. I helped design circuits for nighttime running lights and spent several laborious hours tweezing tiny beads onto the adhesive-slathered hood. The front of the car will be such varied designs of tiny colorful glass beads that I couldn’t stop taking macro shots. The back will be four treelike structures with mushroom tops that support a canvas shade structure. I’ve been a fan of art cars since seeing Harrod Blank’s brilliant documentary “Wild Wheels” at the Red Vic art house in San Francisco, so I’m glad to finally lend one a hand.
