Rabbit-Bear
Here’s a look at a one-off piece, unrelated to any personal series. It’s for John O’Marra’s Chocolate Chips and Rocket Ships, an anthology of children’s poems.

theillustratedghost:
Hello, my name is Cory. I am an illustrator. Every year I do at least one main personal illustration project. [2008. 2009. 2010. 2011. 2012.]
Peppered in and amongst my regular client work and my main project I also like to do smaller, more manageable, one-off projects.
I love the evocative and poetic tweets by Kimmy (@aRealLiveGhost) and with her permission I’m...

Sendak Nutcracker
A little while ago I got an email from Random House asking if I’d like to review Maurice Sendak’s illustrated Nutcracker.
I jumped at the chance and I’m very pleased to be able to talk about it with you here.
The book is, as you might expect, lovely. Sendak’s take on the E. T. A. Hoffman classic is surely the best and brightest, darkest and most imaginative version of...

Indie Craft Parade
My sprawling set-up.
Once again the Indie Craft Parade has struck the heart of downtown Greenville, SC with a fierce ↓, ↘, → punch!! of a variety of handmade media.
Whether felted things, ceramics things, drawings things, the third annual ICP gathered together some of the best working artists in the southeast.
As you might know, this event is my wife, Erin’s largest yearly project....

Imagine FX
Here’s something that I’ve been really looking forward to seeing in print.
The first time my work has appeared in Imagine FX, the premier digital art magazine. I was in touch with them a while ago and I’m indescribably pleased to see this feature in the magazine.
A huge thanks to everyone involved, especially Beren!
Here’s to the next one. I’d love to do...

Digital Forest
I don’t often get to do editorial work or single, stand alone illustrations for magazines so when I do it feels like a treat. Here’s a look at a one such recent piece.
The AD referenced my Microsoft commercial as a direction he wanted to go which I was thrilled to hear, I also don’t get asked to work in that method too often either.

The art request must have been...

#SFAL
Back home from @SFantasticAL, Spectrum Fantastic Art Live.
My expectations were absurdly high. And I’m in no way exaggerating to say they were blown away, destroyed, absolutely devastated the first evening. It was, hands down, the best.
I split a booth with Justin and we had the good fortune to spend some time with some of the most brilliant artists working today. It was humbling,...
