About

“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 his hometown, Craig continues to focus his work around a figurative narrative, but with a very individual method of expression.

With 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.” - Castlegate House Gallery
