Name: Steve Santos

Years painting: 37 years

Favorite color: candy black cherry
What motivated you to start in this field?
What made me want to do this was my love for art and cars and going to the Oakland Roadster show ( Grand national roadster show)when I was a kid and seeing all the kustom cars intrigued me. My biggest inspirations were Bay Area legend Art Himsl and my good friend Carlos Lima which taught me some of the tricks of kustom painting. I pretty much learned on my own, the passion drove me.

If you weren't painting, what would be a plan B for your career?
Would have been an architect if I could of stood six more years of school after high school.
