Emilie Amante is the sales and marketing chief for AVCO Art. This company specializes in unique automotive and racing artwork that is customized to the owner’s car (plane or boat) and puts it into a unique background. The sky’s the limit here with what they can come up with. I met Emilie at the 2025 San Marino Car Show where she showed me some of AVCO’s interactive artwork. This company’s work is so unique, we decided to go more in-depth with a formal interview which we did a few weeks later. In this interview, you can follow along with the photos below to learn about these artistic renderings and the inspiration behind them. There’s also a short (1 min. 7 sec.) video that covers these photos, but has the benefit of sound and light for the special effects portion of the artwork. Enjoy!
NOTE: This is the third of four, female-focused interviews during our “Women in Motorsports” month of September. Stay tuned to www.raceschool.com for our weekly podcast. Our women interviewees this month have job titles with nothing in common, yet they are all drawn to the four-wheel machines we love and have fascinating roles in the exciting world of motorsports.

Emilie Amante is the sales and marketing chief for AVCO Art. She blends her European and middle east fashion industry experience with her love for all things automotive (including racing) to help her clients come up with unique designs and artwork of their own or their favorite car.
In this picture from AVCO Art’s booth at the San Marino Car Show, you can see a wide variety of art and less expensive unique and fun, automotive themed wine bottle stoppers shaped like a safety cone with a cool car on top!
In this picture of the client’s limo, the sky is unlike anything on this earth! Amante describes it in the podcast.
Is this a Formula One car at Monaco with a double halo? Again Amante has the answers in the audio portion.
Riding on cloud nine? The guidelines come from the client and AVCO Art does the rest!
A little more down to earth with these two paintings. The sunset orange blends well with the orange McLaren.
In this picture of the client’s Porsche, the Los Angeles skyline has been moved closer to the coast to satisfy the client’s vision. In the video below, you can hear the music from the hidden sound bar and see the actual lights turn on and off!
This video gives you a broad overview of AVCO Art. It includes the high-tech and interactive nature that features their optional sound bar and lighting techniques.
Not limited to street cars – if you like F1 racing, here’s a nice example of AVCO’s artwork.
You say you prefer endurance racing? Again, a stylized Audi LMP car would like very nice in your home or office.
