WRITING:
Craig
has written articles for various art magazines such as 'Art
& Soul' & 'Graffiti'. He is Editor of 'The Bullet'
magazine from Ovenden Contemporary and has recently
accepted an offer to write a regular column for 'Paint'
magazine from S.A.A.
He also writes correspondence courses- his 'Self-Promotion
For The Artist' course is offered by us
(click here) and
by Stonebridge Associated Colleges (click here) as
a Diploma with NCFE Level 3 Award status (NVQ3
equivalent). In 2008, the Open College of the Arts
commissioned Craig to write a student guidebook for them
called 'The Artist As Entrepreneur' and this is now
given to their thousands of students from around the
world as part of a pack of resources.
Our first project book 'SELF: Self-portraits from around the
world',
compiled by Craig to accompany our recent self-portrait
competition, has now been published and is available to
order from Beautiful Cariad
