New Releases by Craig Frazier

Project 2 Craigs is a compilation of a collaborative project that offered two distinct visions--one armed with pencil, pen, brush, and paper--the other with lens, light, and the physical world. Over 52 weeks, the efforts of photographer Craig Cutler and illustrator Craig Frazier, converged into something more than just shared images--a celebration of the art of visual dialogue. Over 116 images and production notes describe a sustained conversation between mediums, thinking, and the unique approach each Craig brings to their work. It reminds us that making images is not just about output, but about intention, attention, and response.
