Ryan Yankowsky: Best of Web
I simply love this image, as well the accompanying gallery from artist Fabian Oefner, whose use of bright bold UV colors and solid black background make for an image that pops off the page. As I am a car geek the subject, a Ferrari California T, just adds another level of greatness for me. This image stood out as the car plays the role of the background while the UV paint flow takes center stage, other images from this gallery have the roles reversed downplaying the flow. The image was created by blasting the car with UV paint as it sat within a wind tunnel under large UV lights. The following video shows the process in action: https://vimeo.com/107162592 .
The resulting images are quite beautiful with the paint streaking along the curves and contours of the Ferrari. The force of the wind and pull of gravity give the flowing paint a sort of lightning look as if the surface was completely electrified. This piece along with the gallery can be seen at: http://fabianoefner.com/?portfolio=ferrari-state-of-the-art I highly recommend taking a look at the other images captured during the shoot.
