The works of Monet, Pissarro, Sisley and Morisot showed Casey-Mason a language of painterly skills that she was able to appreciate and learn from. Her early impressionistic works (1995-2010) depict landscapes, farms, nature, buildings, marine paintings, rural scenes and still lifes’. In 2002, she attended her first workshop in Monet's gardens which inspired a dream to live in France. After her second workshop in the south of France, she left her corporate job, sold her home in the U.S. and moved to the countryside of France. The landscape that had so inspired her became her life. She created light filled gardens with blooms and veggies visited daily by birds and bees. Her gardens became the main focus of the many new paintings. It was during these years she was unwittingly led to discover the works of Gerhard Richter, Joan Mitchell and Jackson Pollack. Her imagination was stirred by their use of colors, expressive brushstrokes, their reliance on intuition and their individuality. With new found fervor
Casey-Mason adopted their approach which has dominated her art making over the past ten years. Celebrating this freedom, her love of color and wonder now translates onto her canvases within the style of abstractions which are never far from the rhythms of nature. the hues sitting well and resonating with intuitive marks.
Casey-Mason now resides in the U.S.

Artist Statement-

"Before starting a painting I spend a lot of time deciding upon color combinations and experimenting with different mediums. Whether I plan to paint to music or start each session unscripted, I begin by putting a paintbrush (knife, pen, marker etc.) to canvas, making marks haphazardly and reacting intuitively to the canvas. The moment by moment process of manipulating the paint (often times scraping off and reapplying) begins to reveal the inspiration for the piece...a place...a time...a feeling...or an experience that had a profound effect on me. It's at this time I step back and use my thoughts to fine tune the piece and make the changes necessary to complete the image. Whether it's in minutes, hours or days, eventually I know when the canvas no longer wants more of me and it's done.
Life doesn’t provide the chance to redo things or the chance to always determine outcomes. For me, creating art does."

ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The dominant colors in the painting are muted, soft hues of pinks, blues, greens, warm white and grays, suggesting a sense of distance and nostalgia. A flash of orange yellow on the lower left symbolizes moments of clarity and recollection. Overall, "Faded Memories" captures the complex, ever-evolving nature of memory and the way it shapes our perceptions and experiences. The painting invites the viewer to reflect on their own memories and the passage of time, encouraging them to cherish and hold onto the moments that matter most.

September Announcement- Yeah, "Bovine Bliss" just won 1st place at the juried show "Party to the Cows Come Home" in Long Island! I am thrilled! Artist Statement: Creating art is an immersive journey for me, a dance between intention and spontaneity. In crafting my technique, what makes my work unique is the harmonious blend of chance and control, intuition and intention. Each piece, whether abstract or landscape, is a testament to a moment in time, capturing an essence that words often fail to convey. This is my world, my canvas, my sanctuary where the unpredictable nature of life can be transformed into something tangibly profound. -Peggy Artist message: Thank you for visiting my Saatchi Art page.. I hope you stay for awhile. Although I’ve painted for 40 plus years, I”m still hoping someday I’ll get it right but in the meantime I’m having fun experimenting and challenging myself with a variety of mediums and application tools while remaining true to myself. You see I’ve never been one to follow the crowd or be the same person left over from yesterday. I thrive on change. As Deepak Chopra said, “change is the fertile ground for pure creativity”…if I didn’t embrace change I’d be bored stiff. Hence, my diversified artwork portfolio. Enjoy! Read my blog at About the artist- Casey-Mason was exposed to the language of painterly skills by studying the works of Monet, Pissarro, Sisley, and Morisot, which she appreciated and learned from. Her early impressionistic works from 1995 to 2010 portrayed landscapes, farms, nature, buildings, marine paintings, rural scenes, and still lifes. In 2002, she attended her first workshop in Monet's gardens, which inspired her dream to live in France. After attending her second workshop in the south of France, she sold her home in the U.S. and left her corporate job to move to the French countryside. The landscape that had inspired her became her life, and she created light-filled flower and vegetable gardens. Her gardens became the main focus of her many new paintings. During these years, she discovered the works of Gerhard Richter, Joan Mitchell, and Jackson Pollock, whose use of colors, expressive brushstrokes, intuition, and individuality stirred her imagination. Casey-Mason adopted their approach, which has dominated her art making for the past ten years, celebrating her freedom, love of color, and wonder on her canvases through abstractions that are never far from the rhythms of nature and life experiences.
