Project By
Connected as Dwayne Vance (1742 friends)
Dwayne Vance’s passion for design started at age 3 when he started drawing pictures on his closet door. His natural talent became apparent at that early age, and was nurtured through art classes that began when he was just 5 years old. Cars became another passion, as his childhood collection of Hot Wheels grew into the hundreds. By junior high school, his love for cars and talent in art were converging, and Dwayne knew he would become a car designer.
He began his design career with Troy Lee Designs in Corona, California, as a designer of high-end motocross protective gear. Dwayne then became a senior designer for Mattel,Hot Wheels division. At Hot Wheels, he became a prolific designer, developing everything from Hot Wheels cars to entire lines of new toys. Following his success at Hot Wheels, Dwayne has returned to his roots at Troy Lee Designs. There, he continued to design cutting-edge motocross gear including the recent SE2 helmet line and other protective equipment. He now has his own company "Future Elements" - High energy art and design- and is in demand for companies such as Mattel’s Hot Wheels and Batman properties, Hasbro’s Transformers, Texaco, Oakley, Warner Bros, Mazda, Chumba racing, Upper Deck, RC2 Full Throttle, Blackstar Paintball, Troy Lee Designs, Azteq motorsports and a few others.
Dwayne’s skill as a designer is deeply rooted in his love for automotive art. His Hot Wheels design drawings have been widely published in die cast car magazines and books "How to draw Hot Wheels the Hot Wheels Way" and "35 years of Hot Wheels". His art work is also featured at the Peterson Automobile Museum in Los Angeles, California, in the Museum’s Hot Wheels collection. In a new venture, Dwayne launched a new website called MastersOfChcickenScratch.com and features his artwork along with other t-shirts and books in the Hot Rod Industry.
Dwayne Vance has a Bachelor’s Degree in Automotive Design from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. His hobbies include spending time with his wife and four children, restoring his 1967 Pontiac Bonneville and riding his mountain bike.
