Originally from Wimbledon, Keith has lived in Brighton for the last few years, and has set up a large shared artist's studio in an old furniture factory in Hove. Since graduating at Canterbury Keith has explored other professions alongside painting and drawing, most notably cabinet-making, circus work with the internationally famous Santus family, and silk-screen-printing under the tutelage of master printer Sally Gimson of Artizan Editions. A desire to develop his ideas more seriously led him to pursue his art full-time, a decision hepled and encouraged by his sister Katty who has been painting professionally for a number of years.

Keith's work is concerned with depicting his local surroundings. His recent series of pictures are the result of long walks, mainly in and around Sussex.

When not painting and drawing, Keith spends much of his time outdoors and is currently learning primitive survival skills and the art of tracking animals with Sussex based organisation Trackways.
