As he rode his bike across the famous steel city of Sheffield in the early 1970s, Craig Davison could not have predicted the impact these carefree days would have upon his career some 40 years later. A successful role as a cartoonist began his artistic journey with drawing the likes of The Shoe People and The Wombles before moving into animation and games design with a major British company. Working on a wide portfolio of the day’s most known computer games including Zorro, The Hulk and The Hurricanes allowed Craig the platform to sculpt every day as his sculpting reference figures for 3D animation developed him artistically enough to become a freelance sculptor working alongside international brands including Harry Potter and Doctor Who. Turning from clay to brush, Craig Davison began seriously painting as recently as 2007. Within a year he was finally a full-time painter, as he remains to this day, now working out of his studio in Yorkshire where he still finds time to sculpt – a much-loved addition to his portfolio of works.
