A quite exceptional self-taught artist, Craig was born and brought up very close to Manchester; relocating in his late teens to Brighton, Craig began to express both himself and those around him through paint, building a solid reputation as a painter of portraiture. Returning recently to the North West, Craig continues to focus his work around a figurative narrative, but with a very individual method of expression.
Now an invited member of The Contemporary British Portrait Painters, Craig's work has undertones of both Stanley Spencer and Lucian Freud; Craig’s works often have a feel, through tone and subject matter, of a Britain of the 1940s and 50s, an era Craig immerses himself in through his daily life.
We’re very proud to be working in partnership with Craig and bringing his unique paintings to a new and growing audience
