Abstractions by Colin Cook

Colin Cook is one of Nova Scotia’s most exciting and innovative visual artists. He uses his modern style and technique to inspire, uplift, and evoke positive emotions from the observer through use of courageous, vivacious, and ferocious shades, fluid lines, and complex representation of colour, and movement.

His work is vibrant and naturally lifts the spirit of its audience, and lifts the energy raises the vibration of the room. Colin is dedicated to creating striking pieces of art, full of passion, beauty, and excellence. Art that speaks to your soul.

Colin was born to create. His style is uninhibited, fearless, motivational, and provoking. His spirit of exploration is part of what keeps his work so fresh and vibrant. He does not limit himself to any medium or particular style. He has applied his natural talent and creativity to forms from large-scale murals, graphic design, portraits, realism, abstracts, to sculptural installations. His technical expertise has allowed him to produce works that include motion and multimedia.

Ask anyone who knows him, Colin can create a piece of art out of anything he touches. Lately, Colin has been intrigued by the vibrant colours from blending acrylics. They seem to flow together to make his work powerful and full of energy. The immediacy and flexibility of this medium works well with his creativity’s process, allowing him to capture the dynamism and the abstract light forces that compose his current works. He strives to make his audience feel energized and alive.

Colin claims that none of his art is actually finished, it simply reaches its natural limit, there is nothing more to add. And then, he simply moves onto the next piece - continuing to strive towards his own, ultimate piece of art. Be sure to check him out at Expo!
