Shawn David Baker is a great artist who is trying to change the poker art’s direction in the opposite way. Most of his time is spent at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino sketching scenes of the plans he want to put in action. The best piece of poker art is represented by ‘Dogs Playing Poker’ .
When David Beker was asked what he most like about sketching poker scenes he said that “The energy. I paint in color, but I draw in pen here. But I see the color. And that’s how I translate it from pen. It’s the personalities here that are unique.” Only an 37-year-old guy, Beker comes from the city of San Diego and he also said that he’s used to drawing since the 2nd grade and he started to draw for a living only 10 year ago.
He started this with Web sites and animation. He’s used to painting since 2000 daily. The first thing the had painted was the ocean. In time, 2 year ago he finally has become a real drawing poker scenes artist. 
In the interview he also added that he didn’t know what could possibly become, until he watched tv and he was shocked. He has done the Rincon San Diego, which is a poker tournament and that was fun. He is honored to be able to showcase his work to the world.
