Art Car Parade part Two

Here is part Two of the Art Car Parade with more pictures of some of the amazing cars!!

The most spectacular cars have been chronicled on other photo sites and blogs, but there are some other cars that were so creative and fun and deserve special mention! In this photo taken by my mother Lynn, you can see a very colorful car:



I believe it is Patty and Dean Raeker's Chinese New Year Good Luck, Good Fortune car!

Here are the Zombie and padfoot captured by my Mom



This is Claire. She has a lot of things glued on,



I especially love the silicon glue tubes which look like gun turrets on the front sides and the eye balls on the bumper!

My Mom captured this street scene



and also this bystander (or perhaps art car artist) with the most awesome belt of all time!



Here is more of my entourage standing in front of da Kuntry pedlur



and Jan Elftmann, the Mother of the Art Car Parade (She has the cork truck - can you tell?)



This car focuses on the loss of the polar bear.



I believe this one is called the Vdub in Studs . The guy said his other car broke down so he had to bring this one instead.



Here is a better look at Pam and Rich Molden's Da Kuntry Pedlur.



Here's the nationally famous Camera Van (Yes the cameras work)



These "women" helped with crowd control.



This huge dog puppet was pulled on a wagon behind the Turf mobile,





...and here is the House of Balls entry.



Some of the art cars weren't cars, but bikes, like Gus Fenton's Tiki bar bike.





We got to get a closer look at some of the cars afterwards in the Intermedia Arts parking lot.





Anne Chenette named her car after a Shakespeare monologue.



Sorry, I don't know the name of this entry!





Here is Ainishinable whch had lovely Mayan (I think) style figures on the hood and sides.



This is the wind Up car .



And no parade is complete without the Roller Derby Girls!



This is my favorite car of the parade! (I can't help it! They did a lot of work to get it exact!!)



The sign on the back says, "Yes, everything really works!" I'm glad to know we'll be safe from the Sta-Puff marshmallow man!

Who ya gonna call?





The detail was amazing!



The dash board even had a model of the car.



Here are a few links to other websites about the Art Cars.
First this goes back to my first art car post.
