By: Jeff Vitale, Billetproofcustoms.com Jeff was born and raised in west texas, he has two older brothers that were very much into the hot rod scene of the late 70's, they were instrumental in leading Jeff into the world of grease and gears. Jeff began drawing when he entered middle school in the very early 80's, he continued to draw through middle school, but then stopped when he entered high school. For the next 22 years, other things grabbed his interest, during that time, life happened, graduation, a move to Austin Texas where he spent the next 15 years. A career as a construction contractor, then he met his future wife, then a wedding 2 years later, then 2 years after that came the first of 2 daughters...All good to be sure. But one evening while watching an early episode of "Overhaulin" He has not stopped drawing since, and earlier this year, Truckin magazine's "Radical Renderings" section caught his attention, and he submitted a few drawings in hopes of a return email, within a week he had that email and can now be seen in the pages of Truckin. Jeff's intense desire to create is a large part of what drives him, He also designs, fabricates and builds custom hot rods and motorcycles. He is presently working on a heavily customized 1975 Chevy truck which he hopes to have land on the very same pages of Truckin in the near future. A sampling of everything can be seen on his newly redesigned website, so this will surely not be the last you hear from him. His art can also presently be seen and purchased at a local art gallery called Flat 12 Gallery in Lubbock, Texas. # # # I am an automotive artist specializing in automotive designs and renderings, i also build custom hot rods and motorcycles.
