Felicia's Gorgeous Dog!

Animals are such a joy to paint.  I love capturing their personalities.  Felicia commissioned a portrait of her dog for her husband, because she's getting up in years and wants a way to remember her.  She chose to go with a simple background instead of the outdoor scene in the photo.

Jennifer's Adorable Baby!

I adore painting children, and this little cutie couldn't have been more fun to capture! 

Here's what Jennifer had to say about her painting:

I absolutely LOVE the painting Corey did for me. She did an amazing job of capturing my son’s essence and it is absolutely flawless. I have had so many compliments about the painting and most can’t believe it’s a painting — they think it’s a photograph. Everyone is amazed at how perfect it is. I cannot recommend Corey enough. If you have a painting you need done she is absolutely the person to go to! I know I will again!!

Liz's Sweet Girls!

My friend Liz sent me this gorgeous photo of her girls, and I knew I had to paint it for her.  I love the soft window lighting on their little heads!

A Family Portrait for Jen!

Jen wanted a family portrait for her husband for Christmas.  She sent me two photos because she didn't like everyone's expressions on a single photo, so I combined them so everyone looks their best!

Here's what Jen had to say about her painting:

Corey is a brilliant artist.  I have many of her pieces. Recently I asked her to do a commissioned painting for me of my family.  I gave her two different photographs and let her know what I liked and wanted in the commission.  Corey took what I liked and the result was stunning.  I couldn’t be any happier with the way it turned out.  I have also seen other works of babies, children, and actors. Corey captures so much emotion in each piece. I already have 4 more commissions that I would love for Corey to do.

A Painting for Olivia's Mother!

Olivia wanted a gift for her mother's birthday, so had me paint this selfie of the two of them.  As you can see, we did it in black and white, and kept the background a simple white.

Here's what Olivia had to say about the painting:

Corey is without a doubt the most talented artist I’ve ever had the honor to work with. Aside from her professionalism, she puts so much time, energy, dedication, and love into all of her pieces; creating such a beautiful masterpiece that perfectly captures a special moment in one’s life. I was fortunate enough to have Corey paint a portrait of my mother and I for her birthday this past October. The amount of detail in the painting was surreally beautiful, and captured an unforgettable memory. My mom loved it so much that she cried. The painting hangs proudly in our living room for all to see, and I’m honored to have a piece by Corey in our home!

More Fan Art!

I'm not only a fan of Gillian Anderson, but also of The X Files, so I've done lots of fan art for the show as well!

Fan Art Portraits

I am a huge Gillian Anderson fan (if you're not familiar with her, she played Agent Scully on the X-Files, among other things!).  I began doing fan art of her a few years ago, which is what renewed my interest in portraiture! 

In fact, I was lucky enough to see her perform in A Streetcar Named Desire in New York, and I gave her the paintings I'd done of the performance (the last 2 here) when I met her afterwards!

Black and White Puppy for Kristin!

Kristin wanted to gift her friends with a painting of their photogenic pup!  As you can see, I took out the tag and the writing on the bowl to make it a simpler piece!
