Artist Bio:
Casey Greene is an award-winning fine artist and educator based on Long Island, New
York. Working primarily in mixed media and acrylic, her work is inspired by nature,
wildlife, mythology, and history. More recently, Greene’s work has centered on wildlife,
highlighting threatened and endangered species. Through these works, she aims to
raise awareness about the urgent need for conservation while reminding viewers of their
deep and enduring connection to the animal world through expressive line, color, and
imagery.
Greene’s work has been exhibited throughout Long Island’s South Shore communities,
including exhibitions at The Cheese Patch in Patchogue Village and Tranquility Within,
as well as community gallery spaces in libraries such as South Country, Sayville,
Patchogue-Medford, Comsewogue, and Brookhaven Free Library. She received
honorable mention in Art & Color 365 magazine’s “Wildlife and Animals” edition and was
awarded Third Place in Acrylics at the 63rd Annual SBAA Juried Members Exhibition in
Bellport Village. Her work was also featured at the Long Island Aquarium’s 25-Year
Celebration in June 2025 and supported the NY Marine Rescue Center’s 2025 “Oceans
of Hope” fundraiser.
Beyond exhibiting, Greene is an active member of the South Shore community. She is a
past board member of the South Bay Art Association (nonprofit), where she continues to
assist in organizing exhibitions for the Long Island artist community. You can find her out
and about sketching with “Patchogue Sketch Club”. Greene also enjoys regularly
teaching art classes for all ages across Long Island.

Description of Collection:
This collection centers on wildlife, with a focus on threatened and endangered species.
Each piece explores not only the physical presence of the animal, but also its symbolic
weight and personal connection to the viewer. Many of us had a “favorite animal”
growing up—these works draw upon that early sense of wonder and familiarity. In this
body of work, animals become both subject and symbol, representing the urgent need
for conservation and reconnection to nature.
Through expressive line, layered texture, and color, I aim to capture more than likeness.
I am interested in spirit, energy, and emotion—the quiet intelligence in a gaze, the
tension in posture, and the vulnerability beneath strength. By elevating these animals
beyond documentation, I hope to create meaningful moments of connection between
viewer and subject.
