About the Artist

ASHLYN CRAIG is an artist and jewelry maker working primarily in polymer clay, ink, oil paints, and linoleum printmaking. She graduated with a Bachelor of Art from Point Loma Nazarene University in June 2021. Her work has been exhibited in San Diego, Oceanside, and Temecula and she has been featured in San Diego based magazines. Ashlyn has also participated in a number of pop-up art events and makers markets throughout southern California where she sells her jewelry.

Through her work, Ashlyn captures the fleeting beauty of mundane botanicals, fruits, and vegetables through intricately detailed drawings, oil paintings, and linoleum prints. Through direct, centralized compositions, her subject are, by nature, confrontational. Rather than fading into the background of a larger composition, her work beckons the viewer to engage, and reminisce on the inherent beauty of routine flora they may have become calloused to.

She lives and works in Temecula, California
