Coop (real name Chris Cooper) is a hot rod artist working from Los Angeles.
His work consists primarily of barely clothed or nude Bettie Page-style 1950s soft pornography and B-movie monsters, with the female characters often taking the role of "Devil-Women".
The image most often associated with his work however is the face of a grinning devil with a smoking cigar clamped in its teeth.
In 1991, pop artist Frank Kozik convinced Coop to expand into poster art.
[1] Coop has designed posters for rock bands such as Boss Hog, White Zombie, and Rocket from the Crypt,[1] as well as for the Reverend Horton Heat, Lords of Acid, MxPx, Green Day, Nirvana, Soundgarden and Foo Fighters.
