CREATIVE
My newest original life-size metal fine art nude is inspired by a beautiful muse and the timeless Fibonacci Sequence. ETERNAL’s creation is an explorative journey that forever changes my metal art creations going forward.
Rev up your engines and join the Dennos Museum for a thrilling evening of car-themed trivia as part of the mesmerizing Luster Exhibition, showcasing awe-inspiring hyperrealistic paintings of cars and motorcycles.
Recently, I had the opportunity to reconnect with the stunning white Corvette Z06 that is featured in my forthcoming 70th Anniversary painting for the Luster Exhibition at the National Corvette Museum. While it was my second photography encounter with the Z06, it was my first shoot with art muse Aim Model.
After fourteen years on Twitter@ADCookArt, this dreamer of dreams and maker of things has gone blue. I’m not sure why I decided to go blue verified, except that after twelve-point-seven thousand tweets, I still find Twitter a viable platform to connect and share ideas, and hey, I like checkmarks!
I was organizing my studio recently and tripped across “The Illusion,” a self-portrait I created in colored pencil back in 1983. I drew that portrait after discovering Iwata airbrushes earlier that summer and receiving an Iwata HP-C as a gift. For some reason, I felt compelled to include that airbrush in my portrait, not realizing then the impact it would have on me even to this day, forty years later.
I don’t often share my website design work in my POSTS + UPDATES. Mostly, I like to write about my observations and stories of art, love, Las Vegas, and beyond. Well, that and cars and some tech stuff, which I love. So, while most of my readers know me for my art, few here know my design background. Not that any of that matters here; it’s just that I also love creating dynamic websites, and want to share a special one with you.
When I’m not at the easel and not working on a design project, one of my favorite pastimes is working on my website, writing new posts, and exploring new related technology if you haven’t visited the ADCook.com website in a while, it’s had a lot of updates to explore, including new art in progress, posts, and new features.
My deepest condolences to the family and friends of Peter Starr, November 2, 1942 – July 3, 2023. Peter was a pioneer across film, television, and motorcycling who played a central role in bringing motorcycle racing to the masses.
All I see everywhere is ‘AI.’ It seems that most creatives I know talk about Artificial intelligence in one form or another and its pending influence on creativity.
June 30th is a memorable day for many Corvette enthusiasts and car lovers. Known as “National Corvette Day,” this date marks the celebration of one of America’s most iconic sports cars, the Corvette, celebrating 70 years!
I could hardly imagine a better way to start the day. Today my fabulous Corvette owners and I created an epic morning by uniting one of America’s first Corvettes with its most Current C8 Z06 for a photo shoot in Las Vegas.
