There used to be this psychedelic van that was constantly parked in our neighborhood months at a time, occasionally switching up its spot as though trying to look inconspicuous (ha!); that is what Joe Stevenson's van series reminds me of.
Capturing retro vans of all sorts across California, Joe Stevenson evokes a sense of nostalgia for simpler, gas-guzzling times. I suggest you visit SwipeLife.com for more images and a great, succinct piece on Joe Stevenson's work.
