Tom Hale

Tom Hale, a long-time member of the Automotive Fine Art Society, is a veteran automotive artist who does not paint ‘pictures of cars,’ rather he uses the automobile as his canvas to create compositions, abstractions, rhythms and color. He has created over 3,000 original paintings that have been collected throughout the United States and in twelve countries, usually depicting elements of classic cars and cars of the 1950s, his favorite subjects. Tom’s awards include the“Best of Show” and the “Awards of Excellence” from the prestigious Meadow Brook Concours d’Elegance; the “Gold Medal of Honor” from the American Watercolor Society, and the “Athena” awards from the famous Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.
