September 26-28th marks the 6th annual Barrett-Jackson World’s Greatest Collector Car Auction in Las Vegas. This year, tradition remains at the forefront, with the Craig Jackson Foundation donating several thousand dollars to various local charities and bringing amazing cars to the Vegas Valley.
The Barrett-Jackson Opening Night Party at Mandalay Bay rocked! The best part of these parties is catching up with friends and making new ones. Another highlight – I finally got a chance to see the all-new Corvette C7.
Congratulations to ArtisticLifestyles Fine Art Gallery, which celebrated its one-year anniversary this past weekend at its Las Vegas location. Saturday’s gathering was a great celebration with friends and family of the gallery in a great setting.
Once again, DSM Luxury Las Vegas played host to a fantastic evening of fashion, style & performance in a great setting. A great crowd attended last night’s event to celebrate exotic cars and an evening of luxury at The Palazzo Hotel and Casino.
FAST FORWARD is my return to painting shiny surfaces in truly original epic artworks celebrating a unique lifestyle of exotic cars and inspired settings.
In late June I was privileged to spend an afternoon with a great group of enthusiastic up-and-coming artists. With paintbrushes in hand, these colorful artists created a collection of original paintings made available for viewing and adding to your collection this Saturday.
Cigar nirvana. For a cigar aficionado like myself, the International Premium Cigar & Pipe Retailers 82nd Annual Convention & International Trade Show was the place to be.
I find sometimes that simply returning to the basics is what art is about. In the process of returning to an earlier look, feel, style, discipline – whatever it is, I tend to bring something new into the mix.
It’s no secret that I love cigars. Some days, there is nothing like a great cigar. Today was one of those days. I stopped in on my friends at En Fuego Cigars in Las Vegas to shoot some pics of their beautiful cigar lounge and enjoy some quality cigar time catching up with the guys.
Beauty inspires me. I’m sure that is the case with most artists. Some find their inspiration in sunsets, landscapes seascapes and flowers. I find mine in the graceful lines of the female form —to me, “the ultimate beauty”. — A.D. Cook
Father’s Day always brings back good memories for me — probably because my dad was such an important part of my creative life.
I think most people use Google for basic search needs, and it’s great for that. A while back I discovered a powerful tool within Google that I want to share with you all today.
