About Us

“The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life...

and hold it fixed so that 100 years later,

when a stranger looks at it, it moves again.”

~ William Faulkner

Welcome to Zahara Gallery where you will find the art and photography of John and Edna Cooper. Here, their artistic expression echoes the lives they lead as world travelers, sports enthusiasts, and avid supporters of drama and theatre. They both love to be behind the camera to capture beautiful scenes, amazing action shots, and intriguing and beautiful expressions. In their many years of traveling, they've explored Asia, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and many parts of their home country, the USA. Cultures and people fascinate them and bring out some of the best of their artistic expression. We hope you enjoy perusing Zahara Gallery which includes Travel Photography, Sports Photography, Event Photography, Portrait Photography, Fine Art Photography, and Edna’s Oil Paintings.
