Craig Burgwardt Productions, Inc. has its roots deep in the Southern Nevada desert. Craig was born and raised in
Henderson, Nevada just a stones throw south of Las Vegas. As President of Craig Burgwardt Productions, Inc.,
Craig began his artistic endeavors at the age of six painting in oils. It quickly became apparent this was the field
in which he wanted to spend his life pursuing and refining.
Showing and winning awards year after year in the prestigious Boulder City Art Show, Craig continued to work through
high school to fine tune his talent. After four tedious years of fine art, photography, design and communication classes
at Linfield College in McMinnville, Oregon, and shortly after selling out his senior thesis in watercolor, Craig was
rewarded with a BA degree in Art and a minor in communications. Radio, TV and modeling work followed shortly
thereafter and things were starting to look up.
Moving back to Las Vegas, Craig hooked up with Dick Blick Art Materials and their new retail store and shipping
headquarters. This was a great springboard to the local art talent and designers. The keen eyes of top local freelance
designers and agencies quickly became aware of his talent and the freelance work began to flow in. Hotels, casinos,
builders, developers, ad agencies and print houses kept him busy for over 10 years in the Las Vegas Valley.
During this quality time, Craig's work went world-wide and received numerous awards in the Las Vegas and California
markets. But it came at a price – burn-out. The decision was made to move to where he spent many summers vacationing
with his family as a youth, Estes Park, Colorado. As close to God's Country as you can get. The air, the views, the flora
and fauna. The perfect backdrop for fine art and creativity. Since 1990, Craig and his lovely wife Cherie, along with their
beautiful daughter Calli Alexis, have spent as much time as possible hunting, fishing and camping amongst the peaks
and valleys of the Rocky Mountains. This is what inspires him to produce...and produce quality.
As time allows, Craig can be found putting brush to canvas using the surrounding mountain peaks or elk that wander
through his property as his subject matter. His fine art originals, giclee and lumira prints are available for purchase
at the Art Center of Estes Park here in Estes Park. Whatever the task, he is committed to producing the finest work
available. His understanding of clients needs and the quick turnaround times attributed to his talent keep them coming
back time and time again.
We have both Mac and PC platforms working in Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and QuarkXPress. Traditional and digital
photography, along with transparent and reflective scanning capabilities round out a perfect spectrum of artistic needs.
If the need ever arises for quality art or photography of any kind, please feel free to drop a dime on Craig T. Burgwardt
and his studio. The result will be sure to please.
