PORTRAITURE, PAINTING, and  ILLUSTRATION

A CHARMING AND COLORFUL ARTIST STUDIO BUILT AROUND PEOPLE, PAINTING, AND STORY

Cora B. is an artist studio encompassing my work in portraiture, original paintings, works on paper, and live illustration through Sketch & the City. Cora's work brings together commissioned work a fine-art practice, with work that feels personal, collected, and made by hand.

Portraits remain at the heart of the studio, while drawings, studies, and original works allow ideas from art, history, and everyday life to develop into something larger. Across each part of the practice, the aim is to create work that feels personal, charming, collected, and distinctly Cora B.
