Craig Snodgrass Art

Craig Snodgrass was born in Cleveland, Ohio, and shortly thereafter his family moved to an isolated mountain top in West Virginia. While there he would learn 3 valuable lessons that he would use for the rest of his life: these included the fact that the critters always know what’s up; the man may or may not be out to get you; and that crayons taste terrible. Upon completing college, he worked as a graphic designer for a number of years. A few years ago he started to get his hands dirty again and started painting. Illustrations and paintings of rocket ships, robots, space girls, rayguns, and other science fiction themes are what keep him going. Snodgrass says one of his earliest memories was of his mother setting him down with a big piece of paper and some watercolors and letting him go at it. He was about 5 years old, and it blew his mind. He set down to work and what he produced even marveled him. Snodgrass thinks that his little pictures tell stories. Stories that are inspired by old stuffed animals, rock and roll posters and retro science fiction. Hopefully the viewers will enjoy them as much as he does. The artist uses a wide variety of materials to create his vibrant images, ranging from acrylics to Photoshop, to pencil to markers. His art is mainly produced as framed Craig Snodgrass art – though there are also some finishing options available. Snodgrass feels happy with each new piece he produces because each new piece acts as a stepping stone towards greater things.
