Welcome! Lovely to meet you. My name is Corri Lynne.

 I am an artist, a writer, and a ceaseless student on my journey through life. I grew up in a humble home in a tiny town in rural Pennsylvania. When I was not outside running wild through the woods, you could find me with my head buried in a book, painting, or drawing.

I studied psychology and art at Ohio University and Indiana University of Pennsylvania. I have always been fascinated by the emotional lives of people and explore this theme regularly in my work. My influences are mythology, psychology, folklore, and fairy tales, but truly, I write and illustrate to satisfy my inner child.

In my early twenties, I experienced a prolonged traumatic event that left me unable to create for many years. Through my process of therapy and healing, I rediscovered drawing. This ultimately led me to storytelling and the world of children’s picture books.

In early 2023, I self-published my first picture book, “Peanut’s Bedtime Adventures.” Since then, I have dedicated myself to studying the craft of picture book writing and illustration. Since 2024, I have worked one-on-one with former Penguin Random House art director Giuseppe Castellano through The Illustration Department mentorship program and continue to grow in my craft.

I reside in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with my amazing husband and our sassy bulldog, Miss Peanut, where we live in flow with the changing of the seasons.
