Jacqueline Valenzuela with her lowrider "La Playgirl." Valenzuela highlights women and the LGBTQ+ community in lowriding culture through her artwork and the car club she helped found.When artist Jacqueline Valenzuela first got her Cadillac, a lot of people assumed it belonged to her husband. When she heard from more women who had the same experience, she got an idea:"Maybe I should paint the women in the community or paint about the community, but from a female perspective.
Her studio space in the City of Industry, which she shares with her fiancé Mark Hocutt, is also partly an auto shop. In the front is an office and a space for Jacqueline to paint on canvases, a panel for a hand-painted mural on a car, or to work on an installation. In the back is the auto shop, with classic cars that Mark — a custom car painter — is working on.,” Valenzuela says.
While it used to bother her, Valenzuela says it doesn’t anymore. And the people that know her know that she has real cred in both worlds.
