Old School Soul. New School Fire.
Thomas Vasquez Jr. is a Denver-based artist keeping the tradition of old-school lowrider culture alive through hand-painted candy paint and pinstripe work. Every piece is a fusion of classic technique and modern vision — bold metalflake finishes, intricate hand-pulled lines, and colors that shift and glow under any light.
From scale model cars and custom bicycle frames to metal panels, coffee tumblers, crosses, and wall art — Thomas brings that signature candy coat to anything you can imagine. Each piece is one-of-a-kind, painted by hand with the care and precision the craft demands.

"Just received my custom coffee mug and I couldn't be happier. The craftsmanship is top tier! The candy paint has amazing depth and the linework is super clean. It looks even better in person than in photos. You can tell this artist takes pride in their work. Definitely recommend if you want something unique and high quality!"

"This young man nailed it. He matched my car's patterns and colors perfectly — every line, every fade, every bit of flake, even the sharpie drawings!! I'm honestly blown away. To see the next generation studying the craft, putting in the work, and creating something this clean makes me proud. Keep going, Thomas!! Your talent is real. He painted this using all Vanderslice Kustom Shop products — from the RTS to the flakes to the clears, he put it all together beautifully. This is going on display in the shop for sure. 🔥🔥🔥🔥"
