Explorations II

John Thayer Casey

John was born in Connecticut and rasied there and in Florida, California, and Washington. The first public display of his art, around the age of nine, was in an exhibition of school arts at the Lyman Allen Museum in New London, Connecticut. His future in art was sealed when an artist relative gave him a set of oil paints for his eleventh birthday.

His formal training in art included: a Bachelor's of Arts in Drawing and Painting from the University of Oregon and a Master's of Fine Arts in Painting from California College of Art, in Oakland.

His work is generally concerned with some aspect of nature, and sometimes with the mysteries of nature or of human existence.
