The fusion of street art and cars in Howard Mcalpine’s work is very stylish and almost seamless. These are the best pieces I have seen with Evil Knieval for a long, long time.
He is best known for his advertising photography, having worked for large brands such as Heinz, American Express and Nurofen.
I think a lot of automotive car photography is SO boring, and takes itself far too seriously. But you know, there is something about the playful nature of these images that makes me feel lost, and there is some awesome automotive photography out there. Hurrah!
