About
Kia ora, I'm Craig McClure, a visual artist from Scotland, based in Aotearoa, New Zealand. I've been drawing and painting since I was a kid, and I've turned that passion into a career. I've worked on all sorts of projects, including murals and illustrations, as well as, fine art and installations. My work has been shown around the country and overseas, and I'm always looking for new opportunities to create something amazing. One of the things I love most about my work is the chance to take an idea and turn it into something visual that really pops. Whether it's a blank wall that needs some color or a whole room that needs a makeover, I'm up for the challenge. I've got a network of talented folks in the industry that I work with to make sure every project is done right. So if you're looking for an artist who's passionate, creative, and ready to bring your vision to life, let's chat!

I paint my designs that have been created after working with the clients

Pick me for these projects! :-

Murals and installation art. I love to create a transformational environment! Also, digital illustration and canvas commissions

I'll sit these ones out :-

I am not interested in reproducing someone else's design,   but I am happy to create my own deign,   inspired by something you ave seen. Jobs where the client has already decided exactly how something will look,   instead of allowing the creative process to make better outcomes
