She was appointed by the Australian War Memorial to accept the appointment as an official war artist. She was the first woman to paint women working in the munitions’ factories.[1] BiographyCraig was born in London, England on 18 November 1901.[2] Her family emigrated to Australia in 1902.[3] From 1924 though 1931 Craig studied at the National Gallery of Victoria Art School where she was taught by Bernard Hall, William McInnes and Charles Wheeler.[2] She also studied at the Working Men's College, Melbourne (now RMIT) in 1935.[1] In 1932 she had her first solo show at the Melbourne Athenaeum.[1] She had a studio on Collins Street from 1936 to 1951 and had the financial means that left her free to pursue painting.[2] In March 1945 Craig became an official war artist, commissioned by the Australian War Memorial Board to record the contribution of women to the war effort. She recorded women working at the Commonwealth Explosives Factory at Maribyrnong, a suburb of Melbourne.[2][4] Craig was a member of several artistic organizations including the New Melbourne Art Club, the Melbourne Society of Women Painters and Sculptors, the Victorian Artists Society, and the Twenty Melbourne Painters.[2] In 1978 the Important Woman Artists Gallery in East Malvern held a retrospective of her work.[2] Craig died 15 September 1989 in Melbourne.[5] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|last1=Wilkins|first1=Lola|title=Sybil Mary Frances Craig|url=https://www.daao.org.au/bio/sybil-mary-frances-craig/biography/|website=Design & Art Australia Online (DAAO)|accessdate=27 March 2018}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web|last1=Reilly|first1=Dianne|title=Craig, Sybil Mary Frances (1901–1989)|url=http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/craig-sybil-mary-frances-12363|website=Australian Dictionary of Biography|publisher=National Centre of Biography, Australian National University|accessdate=27 March 2018}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Sybil Craig|url=https://www.ngv.vic.gov.au/explore/collection/artist/1672/|website=National Gallery of Victoria|accessdate=27 March 2018}} 4. ^{{cite book|author=Catherine Speck|publisher=Reaktion Books|year=2014|title=Beyond the Battlefield, Women Artists of Two World Wars|ISBN=978 178023 374 1}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Sybil Craig|url=https://www.awm.gov.au/collection/P10676776|website=The Australian War Memorial|accessdate=27 March 2018}} Further reading{{commons category|Sybil Mary Frances Craig|Sybil Craig}}
