Craig is a remarkable artist who skillfully combines technical expertise, creativity, and a touch of wit to depict iconic faces, buildings, and abstract concepts. His artistic style involves meticulously painting numerous intricate figures, sometimes numbering in the dozens or even hundreds. Each of his distinctive artworks is rendered in black and white, with a hint of red added to enhance the allure of certain faces. Through his work, Craig offers his own unique perspective on life, emphasizing the significance of small details that come together to form a greater whole.

Every tiny figure in Craig's artwork is meticulously planned and created with its own individuality and personality, with no detail spared. In some of his exceptionally rare original pieces, he even takes the time to meticulously portray each item of clothing worn by his subjects. His cast of characters encompasses a range of family members, friends, and models, infusing his artwork with a deeply personal touch. Depending on the nature of each artwork, Craig incorporates anywhere from 400 to 1,800 people within a single piece, dedicating anywhere from 50 to 150 hours of work to complete a painting.

While Craig was born in California, it was after his family relocated to Atlanta that his artistic talent truly blossomed. He first honed his skills through street portraiture, a pursuit that allowed him to refine his ability to capture the human form with remarkable accuracy. Over the years, Craig has showcased his work in exhibitions throughout the United States, garnering widespread acclaim. He has also made a significant impact on the UK art market. Notably, one of his artworks is proudly displayed in Senator Reed's office at the White House, and his art was featured in Scope Miami 2014.

Craig's artistic philosophy centers on the belief that we are all interconnected, contributing to something greater than ourselves. He champions the idea that through collective effort, we can achieve a sense of harmony and equilibrium—not in a religious context, but rather in a universal sense.
