It was an eventful year for sure. And a good year, too. All-in-all though, I’m especially excited for the forthcoming year. 2016 is going to be amazing. But, before I get ahead of myself, I need to wrap up my semi-annual quasi-year-end summary blog.
New Year’s Eve 2015, Artists Beti Kristof and A.D. Cook painted Gail, from the shoulders up, in celebration of the healing power of art and the new year.
“YOUNG ASPIRING ARTIST.” It makes me smile, really. I like YOUNG. I like “ASPIRING.” I like “ARTIST.” No, wait… cross out “ARTIST” and replace it with just about anything else,
Christmas with the King? The King of Rock and Roll, perhaps. Well, sort of. Steve Connolly as Elvis is the “Spirit of the King.”
Like previous years, I enjoyed most of my time at the Motor Trend Auto Show hanging with the beautiful ladies. Yes, I’m talking about the Lamborghini “ladies” – of the Aventador and Huracan variety. And of all those feisty ladies, these are among my favorites. Of course, what I refer to as the ladies, most simply call the BULLS. Semantics, I say.
Art Workshops… Painting, Drawing, Color (lots of colors) — we’re going to have fun this holiday season. I’ve teamed up with talented artist extraordinaire Beti Kristof and Las Vegas’ best art supply stores, Desert Art Supply, to bring you three exciting art workshops in December.
LAS VEGAS – In recognition of what would have been Frank Sinatra’s 100th birthday on December 12, 2015, the Las Vegas News Bureau is celebrating his legendary career in Las Vegas through exhibitions featuring iconic and rarely seen images from its archives.
Mark your calendars… November 14 — FOOD IS ART ~ enjoy an evening of food and libation pairings with top chefs, sommeliers, and master mixologists, live entertainment by Pablo Cruise, live and silent auctions, fine art, and more!
Hard to believe… my site, ADCook.com has been live and showcasing my art for 19 years now. Launched this day in 1996 (you know, back when we paved the Internet highway with cobblestones – lol).
Las Vegas legend Gordie Brown puts on a rockin’ show. His recent “Night of celebration, just for the hell of it!” show at the Gordie Brown Showroom was powerful and really showed Gordie’s impressive impressionist skills. In short, it was a blast!
Special thanks to Siena Italian Authentic Trattoria in Las Vegas for hosting my St. Jude sculpture, “The Things We Do For Love.”
Every year is better than the last. This year’s sixth Annual Italian Sports Car and Motorcycle Day – Oct. 11, 2015 – was no exception.
The crowd was awesome and the cars amazing.
