Douglas started his vast and eclectic vocational life with art. In fact, all facets of art from metal fabrication, wood, glass, plastics, optics, fine art to digital art and photography. It’s no wonder, he attended one of the most prestigious colleges of art, Pasadena Art Center. Douglas’ full range of expertise started when he began his life’s work as a Union Carpenter helping to build construction joint forms for the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Long Beach. A desire for more led Douglas to an opportunity through a family friend who was in the field of Optics. He was able to do top secret work for the Military. Amongst the fascinating projects were prototypes from Coors crystals for heat seeking missiles. Many of the projects were for Lockheed Missiles and Space and organizations like Hughes Aerospace and NASA for the shuttle program. He also worked on the early 80′s 3D projection lenses for all West Coast theaters.

Later he designed a permanent installation for the Discovery Channel which was an ant farm that was four feet by four feet and included a robotic arm that was maneuverable by a joystick which also had a 3D camera that enabled the viewer to see the ants up-close in 3D. Douglas decided to move on and pursue a hobby and passion of building custom street rods and then made it a full time career.

He worked on some of the top sports cars using his fabrication knowledge and his artistic eye to gain recognition from the leaders of million dollar custom cars in the industry. Douglas restored a Ferrari 350 GTC Special, originally purchased by the Queen of England from Enzo Ferrari. It was entered in the prestigious Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance and it won Best in it’s Class.
