Craig Wen

“I’m a self taught pastel artist specialising in capturing the stunning beauty of the North Wales landscape. I was born in Aberystwyth and now live in Caerwys, Flintshire. After a career in the charity sector, I became a full-time professional artist in 2018.

I can often be found in the mountains at dawn or dusk, where the light is at its most dramatic. Twilight and the ‘magic hour’ offers a space in-between. A moment of peace and time to reflect and assess the day that’s been or the day ahead. Walking in the mountains alone and in the dark is one of the most ethereal experiences I know.
