FULL TIME ARTIST SINCE 2010

South African born Craig Bertram Smith, grew up in Johannesburg where as a child, fishing played a big part in his life. Fishing trips with his Dad and brother, specifically their annual Wildcoast trips are among some of his fondest memories. From a young age he had a keen interest in all ocean creatures, and would spend hours sketching and drawing various species of animals and fish

His passion and focus is portraying the natural world in all its beauty and mystery. He strives to elicit reverence in his art showing animal and habitat wild and untouched, and to bring the viewer to a alternate world, showing a perspective from the animals point of view. As an artist he studies every creature he paints to bring out each of their characters as accurate to nature as possible, explaining their habits, movements and showing anatomy in detail
