Vali-Hi Drive In
Day 18 of Inktober 2024 - Drive
What is Inktober? Read about it here.
Ever been to the Vali-Hi Drive-In in Lake Elmo? I miss it. I’ve had some of the best times watching motion pictures on that gravel covered parking lot. This painting captures the essence of a bygone era at the now-closed Vali-Hi Drive-In Theater. Two figures cozy up in the bed of a pickup truck, mesmerized by the giant screen as "Take Me Out to the Lobby," plays and animated foods dance across the screen. With its vintage neon color palette set against a deep black night sky, this artwork transports viewers to a joyful moment filled with laughter, love, and the simple pleasures of summer nights under the stars in Lake Elmo.

Premium Prints Adam Loves
My Fine Art Prints are printed right here in Minnesota with the highest quality materials. To make your decision easy, I chose a few of my favorite substrates that really bring my artwork to life.
Multi-column
Fine Art Paper Prints
Paper Prints are my most popular print for a reason - the colors are vibrant, and texture from the original painting shines through beautifully. They're printed on acid-free, pH-neutral papers with archival pigment inks and ready to be framed or propped up on your shelf.

Framed Paper Prints
I offer two framing options for paper prints: gallery black-framed and premium walnut-framed. These expertly crafted frames arrive ready-to-hang with protective acrylic.

Metal Prints
Metal prints are super shiny. Paired with my vibrant color palette, the finish is so cool. These prints also come ready-to-hang, and offer a more modern twist to traditional framed or canvas artwork.

Canvas Gallery Wraps
The canvas gallery wrap substrate is fun because, at first glance, you might mistake it for an original painting. These have a semi-gloss finish and arrive ready-to-hang.

What is a Fine Art Print?
I get this question a lot. Most of the time, a Fine Art Print started as an Original Painting. In order to share that artwork with more people, I get the piece scanned by a kickass scanner in NE Minneapolis in order to give more people the opportunity to enjoy the art as a Fine Art Print.
