About the Artist

Botanical Artist and naturalist Corinne Lapin-Cohen captures the beauty and grace of a plant at a particular moment. Painting with the precision and clarity of a scientist and the heart and vision of an artist, her work is informative while being artistically pleasing. Her meticulous attention to detail draws the viewer into each painting, and the sensuous watercolors reflect her unusual sensitivity to nature. To Corinne, Botanical Art is about precision and clarity- but ultimately about life. Currently she is working on a series of watercolors depicting plants used in pharmaceuticals.

She is an instructor of botanical art and teaches botanical drawing and painting at the Lasdon Arboretum in Katonah, where she is also the director of the botanical art program. She also teaches at the StoneHouse Studio in Katonah, NY. See the Classes page for more information.

Her original paintings and limited edition prints are widely collected, and her work has been shown in numerous exhibitions at arboretums and galleries throughout the country. She is in the permanent collection of the Hunt Institute for Botanical Documentation at Carnegie Mellon University, in Pittsburgh, Pa.
