craig long Traditional landscape painter in oil, watercolour and acrylic

Craig Long started painting in 2001 shortly after movin to Devon. Driven by his passion for the area he developed his strong and distinctive style, using a variety of mediums from oil to watercolour.

ā€œI’m excited by detail and texture as well as light and form, but for me photo - realism is not
the aim, but rather an idealised or minds eye type of realism reflecting the elements that
make up a perfect moment.ā€

His originals have found homes in many collections both in the UK and abroad. His
work can also be found on a number of calendars, greeting cards and book covers.

Craig can regularly be seen demonstrating at the Ark Gallery alongside fellow Gallery owner Derek Hayward.
