Cornwell's paintings were in Cosmopolitan, Redbook, True, The American Weekly, Life and Good Housekeeping. He has done book arts for The Man of Galilee and others. Cornwell has also taken up advertisement contracts for GM, Eastern, Pennsylvania Railroad, Paul Jones Whiskey, Aunt Jemima, Seagram's Gin, Woodbury Soap, Palmolive, Coke, Goodyear, New York Life and Squibb.
