Cory Sea on Beauty, Healing, and Weaving Jazz into Digital Art

Cory Sea is a digital artist and jazz guitarist whose creative journey began in childhood, inspired by his father who was a painter and art professor. With a BA in Art from the University of Michigan and an MFA from the University of New Mexico, Cory’s path has always been guided by a desire to bring beauty into the world. His shift into digital art began in 2008, when he was invited to create visual content for a relaxation DVD for hospital patients in Australia. That experience marked the beginning of his deep engagement with digital media. We asked Cory about his art, creative process, and inspirations.
