Welcome to Sturgis 2016
A warm greeting after a long trip from Las Vegas to the biggest motorcycle rally in the world. To say the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally 2016 is a blast would be a huge understatement.

A few short weeks ago, I was chatting with renowned photographer Michael Lichter about this year’s Art of the Motorcycle Show at the Buffalo Chip. He offered to share one of my motorcycle paintings if I had something tattoo-inspired to show. I didn’t, but that was about the change.
I’m one of those guys who believes that things happen for a reason, and still believes that dreams really do come true. I’m a little old fashioned that way. A romantic of sorts. And maybe I’m a taste patriotic as well, since both my latest paintings feature stripes of red and white and stars in fields of blue.
The Karma Las Vegas Pre-Party at Chicago Motor Cars was a blast. Catch the video here.
For me, motorcycles are always art. Two of my tattoo-inspired original artworks will be showcased among thirty world-class motorcycle builders. I’m looking forward to meeting a lot of these great artists – legends in the world of custom motorcycles.
Motorcycle Art by A.D. Cook – realistic paintings of Harley-Davidson, Indian Motorcycle, choppers, and baggers. As seen in Easyriders.
First off, I love cars, so this works for me. Anytime I can share the stage with a room of exotic cars and beautiful ladies makes for a great art show. Set up in a rockin’ bar with great tequila, a ton of Karma love, some new epic artworks, a couple of artists, and on you’re got a fun party by anyone’s standard. Cool, even by Vegas standards. This is Karma Las Vegas.
Watch AMERICA chopper art in process video by A.D. Cook as he creates this epic artwork at the easel. Special thanks to Charlie Brechtel for music.
AMERICA, my latest painting in my America First Series is a perfect fit for Charlie Brechtel and his rockin’ song “Made in the U.S.A.”
Inspire the rider within with “AMERICA”, my newest epic motorcycle artwork. Driven by a desire for freedom and the open road, this super-sized painting showcases American pride and craftsmanship. AMERICA is the first from my new series AMERICA FIRST.
I’m pretty sure if Mona were around today, she’d be a biker. A lady for sure, but when the weekend arrives, that smile is all about the open road.
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.
