Each piece of the Stained Jazz collection plays its own colorful melody and when hung upon the wall solo, duet or ensemble, this “Tight” band creates an unmistakable harmony.

Utilizing the same approach he brought to his “Stained Jazz” series, H. Craig celebrates our modern relationship with wine. These pieces are playful, sexy and romantic like your favorite Riesling, Merlot and Shiraz. Enjoy Wine Art in the spirit intended, good taste and good fun! Cheers!

I create small works or pocket pieces to brighten up a corner or to highlight a space in your home. Each has as much punch as a larger work of art but doesn’t overwhelm the location. A collection of small works hanging in a hallway transforms the space into a gallery, where a large piece, often, cannot be fully appreciated.

A few years ago I created a beautiful watercolor, fashion illustration and as a lark began dressing the figure in feathers. The remarkable, small works of art were so well received; I began to get requests for signature works from collectors. Today I proudly present my feather pieces and small works. Purchase the perfect art piece to give as a gift, to accent a desk, a nightstand or create your own centerpiece with these one-of-a kind works of art.

I began painting on grass mats over ten years ago, utilizing both ink and acrylic paint to create simple African figures that stood over four feet tall. As my skill has developed over the years, the “Textures collection” has matured and currently showcases an array including small, elaborately detailed designs that celebrate African masks and paintings on papyrus, portraits and over-sized still life.

Meticulous attention was paid to form beautiful, engaged women bonding and sharing. The Black & White collection holds a special place in my heart, from the African influenced fashions to the piece I presented to Prince Cedza Dlamini, Grandson of Nelson Mandela, to raise funds for the Millennium Development Goals.

From beautiful designs to simply elegant fashion illustrations, each limited edition bag is an expression of your personal style and sense of individuality.
