date he has sold over 700 paintings.  

Most recently Craig has placed in the top 3 out of approximately 70
local and national artists at both the 2010 & 2011 Taste of St. Louis.

His whimsical creations play with color and rhythm in such a way that
they seem  to dance upon the canvas. The allegorical style he has
created is not to be taken in at a glance; rather it is most fully
enjoyed when taken in at a serene pace, for what first may appear
as simplicity belies a hidden depth.

This having been said, it is the artist's hope that the observer will
not take his  work too seriously and will allow themselves to enjoy
the magical simplicity of the paintings.
