 " Wave Burst" by Casey Chalem Anderson It was at the High School of Art and Design, N.Y.C. that Casey began to paint seriously. During this time she also studied figure drawing at the Art Students League. She received a B.A. in Art from the University of California at Berkeley, where she studied with some of the Bay Area’s most prominent artists including Joan Brown and Elmer Bischoff. Casey has worked with both the Peconic Land Trust and the Nature Conservancy, two vital environmental groups working to protect the open land that is so essential to her paintings. Casey is a founding member of Plein Air Peconic, a group of 12 artists dedicated to depicting the conserved sites of the Peconic Land Trust. She is involved in planning the group’s exhibitions and painting at specific sites. Casey participates in important local benefits like the Cigar Box Art Auction for the East End Hospice, the Annual Studio Benefit Tour of the Artist Alliance of East Hampton and the Art of Wine Bottle Auction which raises funds for the Sag Harbor Whaling Museum. Through her glorious palette of emerald, lavender, aquamarine, peach and azure blue, Casey translates her affinity for the landscape by deftly balancing tranquility with visual stimulation. Casey’s paintings are collected by a wide variety of people who wish to access that serenity and the emotional lift of color which her work so uniquely offers. |

Framed or unframed? Customize the work to make it truly your own. |
| Art of Photography |
|
When families get together, both children and adults love to look through photograph albums. They enjoy seeing the childhood photos of older family members and compare themselves to ancestors who lived a hundred or more years ago. Photos are among the most important treasures of every family. They should not be faded and dull. They contain the smiles, tears and emotions of generations. The staff members at Hampton Photo Arts display excellence in the art of photography reproduction. They work with the highest quality materials. They know how to create family memories that will be just as beautiful one hundred years from now as they are today. |
Photography is an amazing art form. A photograph album is a catalogue of life's history as seen through the camera. People, animals, nature, holidays, celebrations and even disasters are captured instantly and recorded as part of history. It is through the powerful presentations of photography that we better understand the progression of time and life. Hampton Photo Arts has over twenty years of experience working with photographers as they seek to capture and preserve the history of families and communities.| Learning to Paint Watercolors |
|
Watercolor is an easy, fun medium for creating art. Color theory, composition and design can be explored freely with watercolor paint, paper, and brushes. Several techniques may be used with watercolors for varying effects including painting wet on wet, wet on dry, layering washes, and more. Watercolor paper comes in cold press, hot press, and rough. Rough paper has the most texture, and its hills and valleys can result in interesting effects when paint is added. Hot press is the smoothest and has the finest texture. Cold press has a moderate amount of texture and is the paper most commonly chosen by watercolor artists. Watercolor paper comes in several weights ranging from 90 lb. to 300 lb. based on the pounds per ream of paper. Most artists prefer to use at least 140 lb. paper. Papers vary somewhat between manufacturers, so sampling different papers is advisable. Paper can be purchased in pads, in blocks or in large sheets. The large sheets are usually the most economical and can be torn into whatever size is desired. |
