Fine Art & Photography

Elizabeth A. Cook : Photography & Fine Art

Born, raised, left, and returned to New Brunswick, Canada,  my pursuit of the arts began at a very young age.  I credit my mom for my keen interest in capturing moments on canvas, and I thank my dad for my skills in fine detail pen and ink drawing. My formal education began at Mount Allison University Fine Arts program and continued at the Holland College Photography & Digital Imaging program. I have also had the profound privilege working with a number of well-known Canadian photographers, such as Tim Pfinder, Martin Flewwelling and Mark Hemmings.

In 2008 I moved to the UK where I fully exhausted my work visa doing commercial photography and graphic design. In 2010 I returned to Canada and moved to Calgary, Alberta, where I'd been fortunate to work at Gainsborough Galleries with Marie Wood, her partner Ed, and son, Robert E. Wood. My primary focuses were photography and digital media, and many of my projects can be found in London, England as well as Calgary, Alberta.

In 2017 I returned to the maritimes to manage and subsequently purchase Handworks Gallery in Saint John, New Brunswick where I help to promote Maritime artists, while also pursuing more traditional mediums such as painting and drawing.
