I wouldn't necessarily call Brooklyn based artist, Kevin Cyr a rev head or anything but he does seem to have a fascination verging on obsession with motor vehicles. For the last few years, Kevin has been painting motorised transport of all shapes and sizes but mostly he's shown particular interest in abandoned bombs, found lemons and beasts destined for the junkyard.

He has an incredible eye for detail, keen to represent every little imperfection or piece of character of the vehicles he paints and often layers them onto backgrounds riddled with the hallmarks of an abused street setting. Awesome works.

Check out some samples of his ghetto rides to the right of this post and for more Kevin Cyr visit his website www.kevincyr.net
