Artist Beti Kristof
I’ve been a fan of Beti Kristof’s art and creative sensibilities since the day we met. Her passion-filled spirit and paintings embrace life and a zest for art, making her stand out from other artists. As a result, canvas and paint take on a momentum of their own.

LA Art Show
Andy Warhol once said, “Art is what you can get away with.” Clearly, he was on to something. With his controversial pop art, he explored the relationship between artistic expression, celebrity culture, and advertisement – and he got away with a lot. Even with his passing in 1987, he is still among the best-selling American artists ever. And today, maybe even more so, he is everywhere in art.

New Year. Renewed Vision.
It’s a New Year. And with that comes a Renewed Vision. For me, that is all about art. After all, art is my passion, so almost everything I think and dream about is about art in one way or another, and the possibility of a brighter creative future.

ADCook.com Turns 18
Pop the champagne and blow out the candles. This week, ADCook.com turned 18. Launched on October 23, 1996, my art site has undergone many design iterations and grown over the years, but its primary purpose has always been art and design.

Fuel Nightclub Website
My client needed a website to premier a new nightclub, which I was happy to create. Unfortunately, while the club concept looked like a great place for fun nightlife, the city felt differently and the club never opened. The site was unpublished shortly after.

Sturgis Motorcycle Rally
The 74th Annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally was a great time to connect with the motorcycle community in a fun and festive way. Each year, bikers descend on the small town of Sturgis, South Dakota, for the annual motorcycle gathering. They’ve been doing it for a long time—seventy-four years and counting.

The LINQ High Roller Las Vegas
Well, I finally got a chance to check it out, and I gotta say… The LINQ High Roller is pretty cool. In truth, it’s actually quite a bit more than just “cool.” At 550 feet tall, the all-new LINQ on the Las Strip is EPIC! The world’s tallest observation wheel takes the Strip to new heights in a big way.

The Nakedness of Woman
It’s a beautiful vision — the female figure. For as long as man has created he has immortalized the female figure into his art. Countless powerful and beautiful artworks have been created, along with stories told. More songs than anyone can count been written and poems are scattered across eternity. Beautiful women have been elevated to pedestal status and celebrated for as long as time existed.

Pencil
A pencil. That’s all you need.
It can be any pencil – drawing pencils, colored pencils, or the old yellow #2. So grab what you got and draw.
