About
Angela Caley is a self taught oil painter originally from Ohio, but has been living in New York State since 2001. She attended Columbus College Of Art And Design, and then continued her education in NY gaining her degree in fine arts/studio arts and minored in Anthropology and Sociology.
Caleys work is full of personal narratives, exploring the relationships between lived experiences and dreams and telling of family history as well as her travels on trail in the deserts and mountains she holds so dear. She specializes in mixed media techniques combining Ink drawings with oil and acrylic paints on both wood and canvas.
In the early 2000’s Caley co-founded the Active Artist Alliance, a group of artists whose aim was to bring awareness to the arts in the local community, spotlight different artist and organize gallery shows and events in Western New York State, Pittsburgh, and as far as St. Petersburg Florida She has taken part in over 50 exhibitions with 4 solo showings since 2004 and has been in 6 shows in 2023 alone. Caley was selected by jury to participate in the Artscape Banner initiative in Spring of 2023, She was awarded Honorable Mention by the Crary Art Gallery in Pennsylvania for her piece “Rim Rock” in the Allegheny Forest 100 year Anniversary juried exhibition, and was selected to design the 2023 Chautauqua Prize Award that was presented to Siddhartha Mukherjee for his book “The Song Of The Cell” at the Hall of Philosophy at Chautauqua Institution in August of 2023.
Recently Caley co-organized and took part in the 4 person show “Natural Selection” displaying her new series “My Life Outside”, The two person show “Revival” with husband Bill Thomas, and the members show at the Fowler- Kellog Art Center at Chautauqua Institution.
