:D hahaha... guess i should have left the long explanation... but i'll leave that to someone else or to you... start observing how light flows, reflects, bounces & diffuses over surfaces... as water breaks and creates foam so does the light - imagine showers of caustics
in short
low resolution jpg artifacts (noise) + fast cropwork & dropped shadow (inconsistent disturbance to the eye) + saturated cheap acrylic pink paint (surface isn't glossy, but more rough silky-like) + strong soft falloff lighting (large area light or a cloudy day IBL to lit) + added contrast to enhance the spectacle... & you're hyped ;)
take the image into some editing app and start deconstructing it (think PBR ;) gradually take away albedo/colors, reflections, bumps till you end up with silhouette, outlines... AO or clay alike. In the process you'll start to see the simplicity.
Because fine metallic flakes, pigment layer and maybe 5-6 coats of lacquer create an illusion of depth with perfect shine... as if you were looking into the pink ocean, mesmerized by the play of sparkles as you move by... by... bye
