You want imaginary colors? Check out any male hummingbird. The
colors are vibrant viewed from the correct angle.

Karl,
Was the trucks paint some sort of nano pigment? That's something Ford
used to offer. Cars looked kind of pinkish, kind of blueish... .
Kind of
gorpy!
The paintings I saw were displayed kind of like you suggest with more
than one color temp light. That was not on-purpose! Can't find the
pics
I took of them with our gallery manager holding them at different
angles
- darn!
Now the question is - where can I get some for my ink jet printer?
I could make my own from crushed butterfly wings, Windex, glycerin,...

Alan:
That poses an interesting problem. What kind of pigments would a
non-human use? I'm think something in UV range made from fluorescing
minerals or something like that. There are some artist pigments that
change colors depending on angle of light. Looks way-cool in gallery.
Move your head a bit and what was one color changes to another.
I'll see
if I can find example from a gallery show we had last spring.
here's a car I photographed painted in one such style of paint
