1934 Chevy Coupe Digital Mandalas


Last Summer, as part of the Portland Art Museum's Allure of the Automobile exhibit, every Saturday they had Cars in the Park as a collaboration of sort along the Portland South Park blocks in front of the museum. Every week was a different theme, such as Fords, Chevys, British cars, Mopars, or Hot Rods. For sixteen weeks they did this and I was there most of the weekends taking pictures. It was a great way to spend a Saturday morning, it's too bad they won't have something similar this Summer. I took a picture of the engine compartment of this 1934 Chevy Coupe. The side of the car was this beautiful shade of shimmering orange, with blue flames. I managed to get part of the flames along with the very clean engine compartment.

Fast forward to early December and I'm showing my friend Donna some of the pictures I took as part of the Cars in the Park. We came across this particular image and she immediately mentioned that it would make a good set of Digital Mandalas. So I tried it out, and what do you know. I came up with some pretty amazing Digital Mandalas. Here's two of them below. The first one I'm simply calling Orange, the second I'm calling Blue.

I love the simplicity of these images. And the swirling movements as well. I hope you like them too. As always be sure to make a comment or two in the comment section. Thanks for taking the time to look.

Peace
