Cortney Herron
(b. 1988, Los Angeles, CA)
Cortney Herron is a Los Angeles based visual artist whose work lives at the intersection of surrealism and the inner emotional world. Her paintings are quiet worlds built from earthy, organic palettes, inviting viewers to slow down and inhabit a different quality of attention.
She paints the invisible: the energy that moves between people, the weight of an unspoken moment, the way an environment can hold or dissolve a feeling. Her paintings often capture intimate moments that may seem ordinary at first glance but reveal a deeper sense of calm and reflection over time.
Beyond her personal practice, Cortney has collaborated with brands including Zara, Olympia Le-Tan, National Womens Soccer League, Target, Nordstrom, World Market, Pressed Juicery, Bombay Sapphire, Dagne Dover, and more, with a body of work that spans oil, acrylic, and digital mediums. Her art has been featured in numerous publications, galleries, and art fairs, earning recognition for its ability to pause time and offer viewers a moment of stillness.
Since 2023, she has been a working artist out of her Los Angeles home studio, where she remains deeply focused on her personal practice.
