Cory Van Ieperen

Born in Surrey, B.C., Cory spent the better part of his childhood reading comic books and listening to music. He took up the guitar in his teen years and went on to study Fine Arts at Kwantlen University College. Having found his true calling, Cory continued his education in Art, and, in the year 2000, graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design.

Cory's passion and talent cover a broad range of artistic disciplines ranging from painting, printmaking, drawing in a variety of mediums, to comics, cartoons, animation, and web graphics. Since leaving Emily Carr, Cory has continued to hone his skill and has become an accomplished caricaturist.

His unique ability of catching his subject's personality is evidenced by the many conventions, weddings, parties and other events he's been asked to attend, much to the pleasure of the guests.
