Originally
from Saskatchewan, Cory Horne works in her home studio in Kimberley,
B.C.
Drawing wildlife was her passion as a child, and she is currently
creating images in acrylics and watercolour, of the animals
and birds native to the Rocky Mountains.
Primarily self-taught, Cory is continually learning through
reading, attending workshops and demonstrations, as well as
visiting galleries across the country and talking with other
artists. In 2006, she attended the Canadian Society of Painters
in Water Colour Symposium at the University of Calgary, and
received instruction from five of Canadaâs premier artists.

Cory
exhibits in local and regional shows, and has received several awards
for her work, including Peopleâs Choice Award at ArtsAround 2005 and
2007. She has been featured in Kootenay Carnival Magazine May 2006,
as well as interviewed for the Articulate Magazine Spring / Summer
2007. In 2006, Cory was awarded an educational grant from the CKCA
and the Columbia Basin Trust, as well as from the Cranbrook and District
Arts Council. A piece titled Young Cougar was chosen by Ducks Unlimited
Canada as a finalist in their 2008 National Art Print Portfolio Competition.
Spring Favourites - Dandelions and Grizzlies placed second in the
BC Wildlife Federation Artist of the Year 2010 art competition, and
received People's Choice Award at the 2009 Kimberley Art Festival,
as well as a Second Place Award in the Established Artist Juried Competition
of that same festival.
Cory has completed several commissions, and has released eleven limited
edition giclees on canvas. Her artwork has been the subject of major
fund-raising projects over the years for the Kimberley Helping Hands
Food Bank. 150 signed prints of Fifty Miles of Mountains raised well
over $10,000.
In December 2008, Cory was juried into the Federation of Canadian
Artists as an active member.
Coryâs work is available locally at The Trickle Creek Gallery in Kimberley,
BC, The Chateau Kimberley, and The Cottage, Cranbrook, BC.
