HUGO PRADO  HUGO PRADO with Jay Leno 
Born in 1952, Hugo Prado grew up in Miraflores a West Coast surfing suburb of Lima-Peru, South America. His main passion, other than car races and surfing, was drawing. Hugo's father, Carlos, was a race car driver and responsible for importing vehicles, such as VOLVO's, BMW's, FIAT's, etc. into Peru. "I was the most popular kid in our neighborhood”, Hugo comments, “since my father Carlos would bring a different car from work everyday"

After working as an illustrator in advertising, Hugo realized his life-long dream in 1989, when he decided to leave commercial art to become a full-time automotive artist and founded AutomotiveFineArt.com working in acrylic and watercolors sprayed through the airbrush. His original paintings usually take anywhere from three months to a year to complete. The 1931 Duesenberg and the Dale Earnhardt each took a year to complete.

His work can be seen on MOTORWEEK, and his prints have been sold on TV on QVC and auctioned by "The World Leader of Collector Car Auctioneers " KRUSE INTERNATIONAL. Among Hugo's noted collectors is JAY LENO, of the Tonight Show.

Our “in-house publishing capabilities” allows Hugo to publish his own limited edition Giclees on spectacular 8 color process. Being the artist he can match the color of his original art on all the published prints as no one can. 


"As an artist, I understand the meaning of quality and service. I provide my collectors with the best quality, from the original painting all the way to shipping”. This degree of commitment is part of what makes Hugo Prado's limited edition art prints so valuable.
