Art Car, A Brief History


July 2001. Our blank canvas, an '88 Chevy Astro, accompanied by two able assistants.


July 2001. Mapping. Paper on metal; I also liked disappearing ink as a child.


August 2001. After its first 1500 miles in this skin, in Belvidere Park, Belvidere, IL.


August 2001. The hood, shown by the lovely Carol Merrill, also taken in Belvidere Park.


August 2001. The van visiting Erin's new home, Beloit College, Beloit, Wisconsin.

 

Map paper varies, and a variety of adhesives worked with some, less well with others.
Even with a protective topcoat, a year was about the limit for this skin.

 

Starting over...

Marshfield, MO. Not its last stop.
