These are the works of the very talented David M. Cook. Originally from Brooklyn, New York, David currently lives in Los Angeles and is adjusting to the fast paced life of L.A. Mr. Cook's success has recently grown even after just moving to L.A. His recent solo art show in Los Feliz is a testament to that.

What is the title of the work? Describe what you see. (at least 4 things).
