Artist: Casey Scharling | Location: Wilmington, NC
Wilmington, NC
The daughter to a portrait painter, Casey Scharling grew up in a household filled with sketches and paint tubes. She now contemplates her own experiences of motherhood and family through her artwork.
Merging moments of clarity with pattern and environment, Casey’s signature canvases dance with rich colors and energetic brushwork, rapidly crafted to bring figures to life. She is intrigued by both the solitary figure and the interaction between individuals & environment. She weaves the thoughts of her subjects into the canvas with thick layers of wet paint, appealing to the viewer with scenes that are extraordinary in their everyday.
Casey earned her MFA and BFA degrees at ECU. She is an Instructor at both UNCW and CFCC in Wilmington, NC.
Casey has nurtured her talent through funding from the Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation and her regular participation in juried exhibitions and individual showcases. Her work is housed in private collections across the United States.
