Description
After a year and over 100 "straight" posts, I thought I'd have a little fun and play with one of my pictures. Somewhere, underneath all of this grooviness is a 1968 Cadillac Sedan deVille. It had an ill-fitting 1967 hood, which explains the gap on the top of the grille.
I originally made this picture on April 11th, 2009, in the Rogers Park area of Chicago. And true to what you'd often find in that neighborhood, this Cadillac was actually pink with gray primer spots. It was like an elderly castoff from the personal collection of Elvis Presley.
And, by the way, Elvis has left the building, and he's reading Tom Wolfe's The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test.

A classic caddy...too bad it didn't have the original hood! Love what you did with the pic....the psychedelic motif matches the period of the car! Nicely done!

You know, you've actually captured something affectionately known as "Absinth Vision" and that's saying something since I know you haven't been kissed by the infamous Green Fairy...but oh, you've captured her particular view of the world. It's amazing. I love the intensity of the color and the way the details have detiails. The colors are a riot! This is quite a nice, trippy piece of work!

Fantastic! The vintage of the vehicle is perfect for your postwork choices. Or perhaps it's the other way around. Whatever ... the result is a WOW! It made me smile really big to see this. :D
