Cora Howard

Cora Howard (1920 – 2016) was born in New York, she studied at Cooper Union and the Arts Students League.

Cora was a long time resident of Clinton and an active member of its arts community. Known for her vivid watercolors, her paintings were awarded many prizes over the years in juried shows in Clinton as well as in Madison, Essex, and Guilford. In 1993 her painting won Best in Show at the Paint and Clay Club in New Haven.

She sketched daily, sometimes by the water, sometimes at a restaurant, pretty much everywhere she went. If you visited her home, you were asked, well, told, to sit down for a few minutes while she turned out a quick portrait of you.

Cora had several one person shows at the Rose Farm Gallery in East Haddam. Rep. Joe Courtney has one of her paintings in Washington. Her most recent exhibit in 2016 was at the Cindy Stevens Gallery. She was 96. She loved the beach, her garden and her friends.
