All About Illustrator Aileen Casey!
Aileen Casey, the artist / illustrator behind fifishead, is proud to be a Jersey girl! She graduated with a degree in graphic design from Montclair University and for the past 20 years has worked as an illustrator, graphic designer, print and direct mail production manager and marketing manager within the financial services and publishing industries in New York City, Philadelphia and Hartford, Connecticut.
As a young girl, Aileen’s parents learned quickly that being sent to her room was no punishment for bad behavior - she could spend hours there drawing characters and crafting little stories about their lives. As she grew older, Aileen
realized this was her calling and pursued her degree in graphic design and
illustration and she hasn’t stopped since.
Aileen loves a good book, is addicted to magazines and finds that although they are not fashionable (anymore) tube socks are the greatest invention of all time. When she’s not
in the studio, Aileen can be found hanging out at the
Jersey Shore or in Vermont with her husband Scott
and daughter Jade-Su.
