Hugo Montero

Spray paint art has become extremely popular over the generations. Spray painting began in the 70's by a man named Hugo Montero or also known as "Can Gogh". Hugo is from Mexico and is still alive today but has retired his Spray Painting job. Hugo is a inspirational figure to all Spray painters. He is the father of Spray painting.

I myself have taken on the spray painting job. In the summer time when I have more time to relax, I sell them to anyone who would buy them. I relate to Hugo very well. We are both self taught artists and his work inspire me a lot to keep trying to reach the level of details that he can reach in his art. My art is also more galaxy themed while Hugo kept his softer and detailed to look almost realistic.

As you can tell Hugo has much greater detail than I do in my spray paints. He has much more experience than I do and that makes me want to work harder next summer to make mine almost as detailed as his.
