This vintage car artwork is the result of an artist tracking a specific hashtag on Instagram. The concept behind the #finnycar project is if you see an old car, take a picture and use the appropriate hashtag. Italian artist Finnano Fenno could see it and create one of his whimsical works of art. The collaborative finger drawings are done on his iPhone, completely transforming your original photo.
The Polkadot Magazine editor typically creates his vintage car artwork to make it look like the vehicle is parked in front of his playful murals. Based out of Milan, Fenno favors bright colors in his unique pieces. The car's color is usually a key piece of the color scheme or is carefully placed in the illustration.
