Abstract-gestural painter and mixed medium artist Cortney Mohring is know for bright, bold and line centric based works. Cortney’s playful attitude brings the viewer in and keeps them engaged by familiar and sometime suggestive shape and movement. You can find her artworks on walls around DC, large format paintings and smaller more accessible pieces for every collector.
I started out my career as a young Artist, still in middle school, going to an after school program called 901 Arts. The connections I made at 901 Arts allowed me to apply for several scholarships to cover art programs I was interested in. I was able to take fundamental drawing, expressional drawing, pottery, and photography classes at local Universities, Towson and the Maryland Institute of College and Art. The scholarships also allowed me to go to an art and film focused summer program, Steven Yeager's Young Film Makers Workshop.
