About the author, Dwayne Vance

I graduated from Art Center College of design with a BS degree in Transportation Design. I began my design career with Troy Lee Designs in Corona, California, as a designer of high-end motocross protective gear. I then became a senior designer for Mattel, Hot Wheels division. While at Hot Wheels I designed and developed several cars and led teams for entire toy lines. I eventually returned to Troy Lee Designs. There, I continued to design cutting-edge motocross gear including the recent SE2 helmet and other protective equipment. I now have my own company "Future Elements" - High energy art and design- and do work for companies such as Mattel’s Hot Wheels, Batman and entertainment divisions, Hasbro’s Transformers and Star Wars division, Texaco, Oakley, Warner Bros, Mazda, Chumba racing, Upper Deck, Blackstar Paintball, Arctic Cat snowmobiles, Corel Painter, Jada toys, Fly Racing, Troy Lee Designs, Flying Lizard Racing, EAGames and a few others. My designs have been widely published in magazines and books "How to draw Hot Wheels the Hot Wheels Way" and "35 years of Hot Wheels". My artwork was also featured at the Peterson Automobile Museum in Los Angeles, California, in the Museum’s Hot Wheels collection. I have a series of my own prints and artwork based on Hot Rod and Muscle car art that are created in mixed medias.
