Marge Casey is a Guilford artist who has been painting in oils for over 20 years. She began her art instruction in high school, attending the NY High School of Art and Design and earned a degree in fashion design from Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC.
Marge graduated from Southern Connecticut State College with a major in early childhood education and a minor in art. In her earlier years, she concentrated her interest in the arts by focusing on handmade crafts, dolls, quilting, and clothing. As an early childhood teacher, she brought her creativity into the classroom, always encouraging her young students to develop their artistic expression.
Marge is an elected artist of the Madison Art Society, Clinton Art Society and Guilford Art Leagure. She served as vice president and president of the Madison Art Society. Her subject matter is diverse, ranging from local land and seascapes, to portraits, flowers, and still life subjects. She loves to explore the unique opportunities offered through en plein air painting, especially capturing the very beautiful scenes in the shoreline,
countryside, and farmlands of Connecticut. Marge’s artwork will be on display at the Guilford Free Library during the month of December. Artwork is on display during Library hours. Contact information is available at the library.
