Artist Statement When I was a child, I worked with my father in his studio where he taught me many varied artistic techniques. You see, I'm a secondgeneration artist. I grew up in a studio environment, learning first from my father and then from other contemporary masters through hands-on experience. As I continued to learn throughout my life, I've been inspired to express myself through many different mediums. My maturity as an artist has evolved and flourished in this environment as can be seen from my work. Growing up in California, I was influenced by the beauty of the Southwest, which continues to inspire my rich blend of colors and textures. I infuse each work with my own spirit, giving my art its own distinctive energy. My fascination with how different materials react to each other has pushed my work to the limits of experimental application. Texture is the focus of my art. I feel this is what makes each piece completely unique. The owner of a Casey Original can be confident that they own a truly one-of-a-kind work of art. I take pride in my art and each piece can be enjoyed for many years. My work is shown in select galleries and is collected worldwide.
