Marvin? Well I don't know who or what he is, but I like the simple clear colours and composition.

This is definitely an abstract, since I have no idea what I'm looking at. Having said that, if I'd seen this in a gallery, my first thought would not have been that this is a photo. It may not be, but it looks heavily changed in post-processing to me. I like the curves and the colors, am in two minds about the grain, will have to come back and look again for that.
