wide white walls

Shapes, curves and squiggly lines was what I reacted to in making my image.  A slow curved bead of a fender-less ’32 Ford Highboy, and cross light added contrast to the lines in the tread of a classic fluted side-walled tire, better known as the “Pie Crust Look.”  The wide white wall of the tire adds contrast to the image and mimics the shape of the metal curve above.  The wheel well falls into shadow, isolating the tire as the slightly warm light falling on the tread pushes the tire towards the viewer.
