Workshop Facilitator: Cora Green

Cora Green is a self-taught artist born and raised in Nolensville, Tennessee. At the age of four, she started teaching herself how to draw different cartoons and comics. She has grown into one of the most renowned artists of her time. Garnering national and international recognition in Vanity Fair, Tatler and House and Garden.

Cora uses a variety of mediums such as watercolors, acrylics, gouaches, oils, and pencils. Most of her art is created with a monochromatic style; the use of a single hues, making different shades, tints, and tones. Each piece is striking and moving, compelling you to examine feelings of deep thoughts, happiness, sadness, anger, pain or contemplation within the subjects.

Art is not only her personal love but something Ms. Green shares and pays forward. She has volunteered her time and served as a board member of Poverty and the Art, participated in numerous art crawls and charities, and currently serves on the Tennessee Craft(Mid-State) committee. She also teaches art classes at Brookdale Assisted Living of Green Hills in Nashville, Tennessee.

Cora has also done a few large murals in Nashville and surrounding areas. As murals and large form art pieces are a platform that is growing widely across urban areas in the U.S., she has brought her moving works of art to breathe life into these old structures in the city.

Her exhibit ‘Colors and Emotions’ was seen in The Gallery at Provenance’s Hotel Preston in Nashville recently. “Cora’s passion to create art is moving. The way she visually appeals to emotions is challenging in the best kind of way,” says Katy Durant, CEO of Provenance. “We are thrilled to have Ms. Green as an Illuminator with Provenance. Preston, we are able to share her passion for the arts with every guest who walks through our doors, offering them a unique insight and perspective into our city and the artistic culture of our talented community.”
