Finding beauty in the quiet moments.
Meet Korrie
Korrie Dawn Iablonski grew up in the small town of Peace River in Northern Alberta, where she developed a deep connection with flowers, animals, and the simple rituals that make a place feel like home. She feels most grounded in her cottage-style flower garden, sipping tea with a cat nearby.
By trade, Korrie is a Registered Veterinary Technologist, and caring for animals has always been an important part of who she is. After experiencing burnout and compassion fatigue while working in veterinary medicine, she found solace in creating art. Making art became a way for her to slow down, reconnect with herself, and explore emotions that were sometimes difficult to put into words.
That experience changed the way Korrie sees art. She became more interested in the feelings a piece can evoke and the quiet stories it can hold. Through her work, she explores colour, atmosphere, and emotion to capture fleeting feelings and create pieces that invite the viewer to pause and feel something of their own.
Where nature, feeling, and story meet.
Korrie's work is inspired by the thoughts, experiences, and feelings found in florals, still life scenes, and quiet everyday moments. She is drawn to the way colour, contrast, and texture can shape the feeling of a space and add depth to the stories we associate with it. Through these elements, she explores emotions such as comfort, nostalgia, growth, and finding your way.
Her background in veterinary medicine has also shaped the way she observes the natural world. She has spent much of her life paying close attention to animal behaviour, small details, movement, and the relationships between living things. That attentiveness naturally follows her into her art.
When she’s not in the studio…
you'll probably find Korrie tending to her flower garden, drinking far too much tea, spending time with her cats and dogs, taking photographs, or wandering through the Peace River landscape looking for something that catches her eye.
