Traditional stories go with all of her art pieces. Kori Call them ‘story paintings’ and ‘story pots’, and shares the traditional ways she learned while growing up. The blend of all three media, watercolor, oil painting and pottery, shows that she is truly a multi-media artist. Kori has said many time she will see the art piece she is to do in her dreams, or as she is hiking in the mountains or riding her horse. Many of her pieces have themes that link one art piece to the next. Kori states that she gets different energy from each media. Not surprisingly, currently she is working quite a bit on the theme of horses. She and Bob have been involved with the Wild Mustang adoption projects and are into rescuing horses, as can be seen by their own special horses. Sharing with her audience a blend of all of these she believes helps the people around her to better appreciate beauty and life in today’s world. She strongly believes that the traditional Native beliefs can help all people be at one with our Mother Earth, and all our Relations in this world..
