What others are saying...
I recently took A.D.’s 3-day workshop. With a background in painting I have always had a great passion for airbrush painting, however, with my busy schedule and full family life I find it difficult to find time to work on my art. When I took the class I had only hoped to pick up a few pointers and tips that I could use in my own work. Little did I know that I would find myself working intensely on a weeks worth of work and absorbing a lifetime of A.D. Cook’s art experience in a tightly packaged, well organized 3-day period. A.D.’s 3-day class is definitely for anyone looking to improve their composition, airbrush rendering and special effects skills. Come prepared as you’ll spend most of your time actually learning till your mind hurts and working till your fingers bleed. Not only was A.D. a great instructor with an uncanny wealth of knowledge, he was also a great inspiration! I want to get back to doing art again and A.D. helped to believe that I need to make time for it in my life. I would highly recommend this class to anyone looking to take the next step as an artist.

If learning to paint with an airbrush is something you’ve been wanting to do, A.D. Cook’s One-Day Workshop is ideal. For a modest fee, you get some paint, generous amounts of technical guidance, a wealth of valuable information, and most importantly ...inspiration. That’s the great value of learning from a master who is in full command of his craft. One senses the fun and excitement of pure creativity. You witness the wonderful ability of an artist to see the beauty in life and then realize it with passion and skill. What more could one ask for from a five hour experience!

Great art is not just about great technique – it’s about communication – being able to effectively and passionately express your own personal inspirations and perspectives with your audience in a way that invokes a reaction. You want the viewer to be able to ‘see’ what you mean without doubt or hesitation. Discovering this ideal within and understanding how to access that ability through your chosen medium is what separates a great Artist from the rest. - A. D. Cook is such an Artist, and through his own experience and insights he can assist you in discovering that potential “great Artist” within yourself.

A good teacher can give you more information than you can possibly use – a great teacher can help you find exactly what you want to know and assist you in attaining your goals with that knowledge, so that in the end the accomplishment is your own and as such a far more satisfying experience. A. D. Cook IS that great teacher!

A.D. Cook is an acknowledged master of airbrush painting, among whose forte is his ability to break down complex airbrush painting processes, and teach them fully and understandably to others. Generous with his knowledge and highly developed skills, A.D. will teach you more in a few days than you could teach yourself in a year!

You can be assured of a few things if you take one of A.D. Cook's classes:

First, that he is a wealth of information, gathered from his many years as a successful, professional artist. And, not only will he share his knowledge freely, but he will guide you through the processes and techniques that you wish to learn. Patiently, walking you through each step by step, making sure that it all makes sense to you. Additionally, A.D. is friendly and so easy to approach, that even the shyest student will be at ease.

What a joy to find someone willing to share the vast wealth of his experience! A.D.'s patiently walked me through the transition from illustration board to canvas painlessly, and answered all my questions (and there were many) in his easy, laid back style.

Working with A.D. has been one of the most confidence boosting learning experiences I've had!!
