VRFA is proud to present artist Craig Pursley. Craig began drawing and painting before he started school and before long was getting noticed for his work. He was receiving commissions starting at age 14, completed an 8 by 24 foot mural that still hangs in his home town more than forty years later and was chosen as Nebraska's Outstanding Young Artist at age 17. Former art teacher, former police composite artist, former sports illustrator and former newspaper illustrator for a major Southern California newspaper, Craig has focused entirely for the last decade on landscape and portrait work. As a result he has won many awards and been featured in some of the best national and international art publications. His work can be found in collections from coast to coast and across oceans as well as the Baseball Hall of Fame, The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum and the New Hampshire State House where two of his portraits hang. Craig firmly believes in improving his skills and expanding his abilities and is dedicated to these ideals through nearly constant work and study. Craig is often available for fine art commissions and portraits thru the gallery.
