About Me


Adam Baker is an "Art-Whore" satisfying his community one "piece" at a time.
Now before this statement offends you, let me break that down for you.
ART - noun - the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power works produced by such skill and imagination creative activity resulting in the production of paintings, drawings, or sculpture
WHORE noun - a person, who engages in an activity for payment. figurative, a person who uses their talents or who sacrifices their self-respect for the sake of personal or financial gain.
Now when you put them together... you get me. Adam Baker, I am a freelance Illustrator / Graphic Designer / DJ / Thinker / Dreamer, and all around good guy by day, and a part-time superhero by night.
A little general knowledge about me... I love zombie movies and all things horror. I'm a hardcore movie buff. I am also a DJ and professional hamster wrangler. In 2004 I moved from a land, far, far away (Cookeville, TN) to pursue bigger and better things. I recently graduated from a little strip-mall art college with the hopes and dreams of one day being able to use my artistic talents to pay all of my bills AND still have money left over for useless things like more zombie movies...
I must say, for the most part it has worked so far. And I love every minute of it.
If you like my work displayed here, and you need something commissioned (ART RELATED, remember, I'm only an ART whore.) Or just a print of a certain piece you've seen here, Drop me a message, and we can negotiate the situation.
Peace and thank you for viewing my site
