CRAIG DAVISON

Craig is an artist based in Yorkshire, England, UK. With a background in comic books, animation and video games, Craig has carved out a niche specialising in his own mix of pop culture infused childhood innocence. His shadow series of paintings takes homage from all areas of pop culture including Star Wars, Marvel Superheroes, Hollywood as well as television and encapsulates the innocence of fantasy and role play that children take from their idols and harnesses it in action enthused imagery.

 

Although no formal art training or education in the fine art industry, Craig continues to push the boundaries of each medium he works in. Completely self-taught, Craig is at home with a paintbrush as he is with a pencil. The Craig Davison art style developed from his initial starting as a comic book artist, gradually moving into sculpture and then computer-generated graphics for video games. All of these techniques have allowed Craig to develop his unique artistic style, encapsulating comic book style posing within a fine art medium. Craig continues to develop his style now working not only in pencil but also oil and acrylic.
