Dragonfly

Piece description from the artist

“Core” is a recurring theme in my art explorations about the dance between truth and beliefs. Using torn fabrics, ropes, organic objects, and wires as the holds society places upon our belief systems, the design moves in constant relationship looking for its truth, its place. It’s about the restructuring and revisioning that occurs when you realize you have been standing on someone else’s ground and not in your own essential story.

Dictionary definition: Core – the tough central part of various fruits, containing the seeds. Example, if you are looking for the most essential part or the very center of something, you are looking for its core.

About Casey Blanchard

Shelburne, VT

Primarily a self- taught artist, Casey explores her experiences through the engaging and often unpredictable print medium of monoprinting. She is most interested in the spiritual aspects that emerge in the image, particularly relating to how we live in the world and how the world lives in us. In the beginning the work may be a search for answers, but in the end it’s more about being here without them.

Casey specializes in monoprints, which is a process using moistened paper with oil paint and/or etching inks. The artist works with a press and printing plate using an additive or subtractive method often with multiple layers of images and organic matter to create an individual work. Casey may work on a theme which becomes a 10 to 15 piece collection. Each work is one of a kind, printed on archival 100% rag paper. Alternatively, digital images of each piece allow Casey to reproduce her pieces in larger sizes on different materials.

Casey was born in 1953 in Greenwich, CT. She lives with her husband, coffee guru Dan Cox in Shelburne, Vermont. Her artwork is in private, corporate, healthcare, and hospitality collections, as well as on web designs. You are welcome in her Burlington, Vermont studio by appointment.
