Cora Marshall- Painter

Cora Marshall was born in Washington, DC. She creates and explores imaginative spaces that expand her notions of the nature of life and her place in the world. Her subjects are almost always figurative, and she is intrigued by spatial relationships that can be created using layers of paint and textures. Her art is often centered on spirituality, and she creates work that seeks the connections to and lessons from her Christian, African, and Native American past. By mixing symbols and meaning, affirming the potency of the past, and honoring the holy, through her work, she contemplate the significance and depth of the power of the past to inform the present.
