Craig Gallaway

Craig Gallaway has been an artist all his life. He studied art and spiritual formation at the University of Texas at Arlington (B.F.A. in painting, 1973); Regent College in Vancouver, B.C. (M.C.S. interdisciplinary studies in art history and spiritual formation, 1978); and Emory University (Ph.D. in liturgical theology and spiritual formation, 1988). Craig worked in the publishing industry in Nashville, TN (1988 to 1995, where he and his wife, Deborah, also played their original music in the songwriters circuit) and then as professor of art and spiritual formation at Samford University (1995 to 2004). Since 2004 Craig has worked full time as an artist. Craig is primarily a painter, working in watercolor, often on large canvases up to three or more feet in dimension. His work focuses on the local wonders and ordinary miracles of everyday life. He looks for signs of lasting joy in the passing gifts of daily life. His subjects include many natural forms in still life and landscape, as well as figurative works, fantasy, abstract, and spiritual themes. Craig served as president of the Watercolor Society of Alabama from 2009 to 2010. His work has won many awards, and has been shown in numerous museums and exhibitions including the Montgomery Museum of Fine Art, the Carnegie Center for the Visual Arts (Decatur, AL), the Wiregrass Mueseum of Art (Dothan, AL), the Heritage Hall Museum (Talladega,AL), the Johnson Center for the Arts (Troy, AL), the Durbin Gallery of Birmingham Southern College, Samford University, and the University of Texas at Arlington. Craig's work is also part of numerous private and corporate collections, and is represented in the Birmingham area by the Four Seasons Gallery in Homewood, AL, the Atchison Gallery in Mountain Brook, AL, and the Four Corners Gallery in Inverness. Craig and his wife, Deborah, have three sons of whom they are very proud--Benjamin, Christopher, and Zachary--and a dog named Abbie who is also part of the family.
