About me
Select artworks can be seen at The Grape in Town Square, Las Vegas, NV. http://www.adcookfineart.com/about/gall … wn-square/

I've worked as a professional artist and designer since 1980. Over the last several years I have ventured into the fine art figurative world as a new and exciting direction for my art. Prior to that, I'm probably best known for my series of photo realistic motorcycle-inspired paintings ( http://adcookfineart.com/mcart.html ), and for the dozens of large murals of movie stars and celebrities that I created for the Hollywood Video stores ( http://adcookfineart.com/hollywood.html ) during my five years as their muralist and creative director.

My creative focus is on producing realistic and exciting paintings on canvas and metal, tastefully featuring the female figure. These paintings are typically created life-size and larger on surfaces up to about 4 ft. x 6 ft. - view http://www.adcookfineart.com/category/0 … figurative for more.

I'm always looking for creative and innovative models to inspire new art and I value their contribution in the development of dynamic images. I utilize my photographic skills to develop original reference images to create paintings. All images shown in the Art Section of my MM profile are paintings - not computer enhanced photos, but actual hand-painted art on canvas or metal.

I just recently added a photography portfolio. All my figurative paintings start with a photo shoot so I figured I'd post a few here.

There are no words to describe your work. I had to go back and look again to be sure they weren't photos.
I hate people with talent! LOL

Just pulled up your motorcycle site. Wow! In a art world of mediocrity, what a pleasure to discover someone with your level of skill/talent... The only thing that could have been better is a painting of my cycle, a 1971 BMW R-75/5! I will return to your site for both inspiration and admiration. Dave

A.D., Thank you so much for the nice compliments and accepting my FR. That means so much. I've been a big fan of your artwork for years, and can't begin to tell you how much of an inspiration you've been. Gotta cut this short. Time to get ready to slave away at the regular job for a couple bucks, but just wanted to say.... Keep up the great artwork and I look forward to being your friend.
