Please take a minute to read this powerful article. As a survivor of domestic violence, THIS is why I created the Shine project, featuring men and women in the gay & lesbian community who have emerged stronger after physically abusive relationships. You can follow the Shine project as it grows here: @toshinethrough https://www.instagram.com/p/CGS0qwsBAGs/?igshid=1xsqspxylb6sr

In my garden is a magic tree that grows #Hotwheels, and occasionally, #Matchbox cars. This year it has been particularly prolific, spreading its fruit to the magic ivy wall. The best part is that it always seems to time its harvest to when my nephews Louis and Jenson visit. 💋❤️ (at Beverly Hills, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGQT5PVB1w8/?igshid=mdv7at4bpcyy

:: TO SHINE THROUGH ::   A collaboration with Bryan Thompson and College for Creative Studies. This series of photographs showcases Triumph over Domestic Violence in the LGBT Community. Photo illustration by @benfink_art_and_men @benfinkartprints model @bryansthompson “A Gentle Giant”  The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web. -Pablo Picasso.   Collaborating with College for Creative Studies in Detroit, Michigan by pairing established and student photographers with men and women who’ve emerged stronger from violence inflicted upon them, this project shines a light on domestic violence while also allowing young talent to be mentored by well-established photographers. The intent is to raise awareness and funds for this issue with a gallery of stunning visuals that focus on the beauty of the SOUL that SHINES within all of us, rather than the darkness that the perpetrator used to dim that light with physical abuse. The images are powerful, strong, and luminous. The stories of recovery, strength and love are inspiring. Created by automotive designer @BryanSThompson, benefits will go to domestic violence recovery programs specific to the LGBT Community.  @ToShineThrough on Instagram :: @CCS_Detroit   +++ #DomesticViolence #ShineYourLight #ToShineThrough #LGBTIssues #GayDomesticViolence #Photography #DesignEverything #CCSDetroit  For art prints please visit my website at www.benfinkartprints.com (at College for Creative Studies) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFr_pXYhwDo/?igshid=18gq0rz3nwv0l

Green coupe 63”x44” Acrylic, pastel, pencil I’m excited to announce a new series called “Do You Remember Flying Cars?” @DoYouRememberFlyingCars My illustrations explore an alternative 1970s where we had flying cars. In this world, we discovered and monetized flying car technology in about 1972, while in the midst of the world’s context at the time:  Large, American ponderous platforms, new federal safety regulation, and a looming fuel embargo crisis.  Some people call this era “The Malaise Era” but I call it one of the most beautiful times in the history of car design. These illustrations depict this fictional world in about 1986, after these cars have become old, under appreciated, often disused, but ultimately still beautiful. Influenced by my 20 years as an automotive designer for Citroën, Nissan, Subaru, Honda, Volvo and more, the designs are influenced by my mentors in the industry who were often former General Motors, Ford and Chrysler designers.  You can find nods to luminary talent like Jerry Hirshberg, Tom Semple, Doug Wilson, Tom Matano, Alfonso Albaisa, Diane Allen, and many more in my work. This series will culminate with a gallery opening and proceeds from the sales will go to benefit the Bryan Thompson Endowed Scholarship managed by College for Creative Studies, which has just given its first award in summer 2020. Please enjoy as I sow my process, my inspiration, and my love for automotive design. Design Everything!
