RED GRAPES ON CYAN is an amazing seven feet by eleven feet, epic in scale for most painters to undertake although comparatively on the small side for Craig when contrasted with his work at the Grand.

RED GRAPES ON CYAN is an amazing seven feet by eleven feet, epic in scale for most painters to undertake although comparatively on the small side for Craig when contrasted with his work at the Grand.
For the past TWENTY SEASONS, Craig has brought scenes to life on the Grand Theatre’s stages as Senior Scenic Artist. From painting backdrops at a colossal scale, to perfecting the minute details so that the make-believe on stage feels intensely real and holds up to the closest scrutiny.
