The Elm & the Raven

Visit the studio gallery of artist and photographer Emma Coombes, set within the gorgeously restored Balfour House and part of the working artist collective, The Artisan's Hand.

Emma Coombes is a Tasmanian fine art photographer known for moody, painterly compositions that move between landscape and still life, weaving native wildlife into atmospheric, narrative-driven scenes.

Emma's work has been shortlisted in state and national juried art awards, and spans moody, atmospheric Tasmanian landscapes, playful studies of Australian native animals, and dramatic still-life compositions, with occasional forays into illustration and fantasy.

Located in the picturesque village of Cygnet in Tasmania's Huon Valley, the gallery sits within a vibrant creative community rich with artists and makers. Visitors will find easy parking, along with excellent coffee and food just moments away.
