Good Times, Charlie
It is with great sadness that I share Charlie Brechtel’s passing. As the biker bluesman founder and leader of The Charlie Brechtel Band, most knew him as a biker and singer who shared his life through music.

Creating a great online experience is more than just sharing pretty pictures. The Internet is a fast and dynamic world of ever-changing rules and concerns. Creating a great online experience is more than just sharing pretty pictures. It’s everything you see and feel when you visit a website and more.
I’m writing this letter to tell you of the absolutely great service that A.D. Cook provided to me in the revamp and reconstruction of my website: dzign528.com
A Collaborative Artwork Honoring Doctors, Nurses, and Caregivers — “It’s all about honoring the collective warrior essence of those who go above and beyond for others.” say co-creators A.D. Cook and Beti Kristof. The artists collaborative tribute honors nurses, doctors, and caregivers who have taken up a first-line defense against the global COVID 19 pandemic.
I love timelines. When it comes to telling a story with pictures, I can think of no better way to show the progression of something. This website’s Art Creation Timeline maps A.D. Cook’s artworks, murals, and paintings from 1988 to now. I want to suggest that it is a complete listing, but it’s only a sampling of my favorite pieces.

Long overdue for an update, I’m happy to share the all-new ADCook.com website, dedicated to artworks created by the artist over the last three decades (or so).
So, this morning Facebook popped up an old memory (as it often does) of a few of the art nude paintings I had shared previously (back in 2014) and invited me to share them again. Nothing new here; we all get those. And since, ironically, today I am celebrating my 15th year on ModelMayhem.com, I thought I’d take Facebook up on their offer and share my post from six years earlier again today with my FB friends.
Oh, how time flies. It seems like only yesterday that I was in my studio when my phone rang with a personal invitation to join the new ModelMayhem.com as a featured artist.
Even as I type this blog post, Grammarly, an excellent grammar and spellcheck software, gets me through my worse grammatical errors. In this fast-paced world, mistakes happen fast, and they need to be fixed quickly. Not next week. Not tomorrow. Now.
I’m excited to share that I am part of the all-new Conrad West Gallery in the historic Las Vegas 18b Arts District.
I’m especially excited to design the all-new CONRAD WEST GALLERY website. Their new art gallery website features original art for discerning collectors as they proudly represent America’s premier artists in Las Vegas.
