    Robert Medina Cook - Artist Biography

    "Deep," "Expressive," "Original," - These are just a few of the many words collectors have used to describe Robert's photographic images. Born and raised in Northern New Mexico, his love of his native "land of clear light" is a powerful influence and can be seen in every image he lovingly brings to life.

    Self taught and always learning, Robert's passion for images has become an ever-growing, enlightening journey of discovery. Inspired by the rich landscape and ancient history of the area - particularly Northern New Mexico - Robert's interpretation of light, texture, color and shape has slowly evolved into a unique style of capturing the "voice and essence of New Mexico."

    A consummate professional with an eye for detail, Robert has complete creative control throughout the entire imaging process. "There's an unseen dialogue ...a 'psychic handshake' if you will, between the subject and the photographer. It is a huge responsibility ...indeed a sacred gift...to agree to honor the vision from capture to print. It's the driving force and reason I capture, develop, print, and even mount and frame the work myself. The continuity is an integral part of the creative process...and my way of honoring and giving thanks for the image."
