Historical Illustration & Artifact-Infused Fine Art

Craig Tinder is a storyteller at heart—one who paints with both brush and history. This collection of artwork spans depictions of 200 years of history, illustrated through a wide range of mediums including digital painting, oil and watercolor. What sets Craig’s work apart is his signature fusion of authentic relics with limited edition canvas prints, allowing viewers not just to see history—but to physically connect with it.

Each piece includes a museum-quality data plate detailing the artifact’s origin and significance, mounted directly onto the artwork. Created with archival materials and offered with custom framing options, every edition comes with a signed Certificate of Authenticity. Craig’s artwork is licensed with the U.S. Department of the Navy and NASA, and has been featured in museums, private collections, and international publications. His work also supports veteran's organizations, museums, and restoration shops. While he is an artist by profession, Craig considers himself a maker and storyteller above all—bringing the past to life through meaningful, tactile works of art.
