Craig McInnis BIO: All
things creative...became my new world. Keeping multiple projects
cookin' at once: whether, music, painting, illustrating, digital art,
fx make-up or just plain 'ole brainstorming...I found myself a nice
niche to sit in. Amongst these projects were a host of musical outlets:
Shoulder Devil, Taste Bud, and presently SPEAKING VOLUMES. I write
songs for myself and others continuously. My artistic side has brought
me the pleasure of working for many good people doing commissioned
artwork, murals, faux finishing, graphics and props. I am also proud to
be a part of Fright Nights at the S. Fl Fairgrounds where I have done,
horror make-up, graphics, set design, and my fair share of getting into
character. I am presently embarking on a new trip to transfer my next
set of images from the brain to the canvas, and I am looking forward to
the challenge. All in all...one hell of a FUN life...with more good to
come. My intent is to stay focused and to NEVER take my creative gifts
for granted. I am blessed to have these talents, a beautiful devoted
wife, a few great friends and a loving, supportive family. Peace. You can check me out at or search Craig McInnis on Facebook or… my new website is under construction right now
I
have been drawing since I can remember. I decided early on that I would
be an "Artist" and after doodling my way through high school I came to
FL. to attend Art Institute. After two years of schooling I quickly
proceeded to ignore my new found degree and instead, spent a good chunk
of time playing music. I eventually found my home in a metal outfit by
the name of GONEMAD. Singing, screaming, and tearing up stages locally
and on 14 "tours" up and down the eastern half of America...we had a
good run. With the arrival of my late twenties (and my wife Raquel) the
raw energy and dissatisfaction that had fueled my lyrics and my desire
to spit venom in a metal band, dissipated. I began to replace the
negativity with focus...
