Artist statement:
In a world of shrinking time and space, the visual arts open up new vistas of discovery and fuel imagination toward resplendent beauty. Natural beauty may or may not be perceived by the eye, but to respond to it through painting is seeing it with the heart and soul. This expansive quality of joy must be expressed; there is something transcendent about it that cannot be contained, it must spill over. These echoes of praise we call paintings. They are reflective of a greater reality than our own, we live not in a disconnect but a present reality of such discovery, we often call inspiration. It is what I have most enjoyed about being an artist.
Born March 11, 1954 in Englewood Florida, Keith a fourth generation Floridian, has painted the state professionally for 27 years with nearly 300 painting titles and has published over 100 images into limited edition fine art prints....

Art and the Image of God 2012-01-20 As an artist, I create images. Sure, they are compositions and fine paintings but ultimately, they are images, some from imaginative conceptions- others from concrete reality around me. I am a realistic artist. Once these images are finished they are digitally recorded for reproductive purposes as well as cataloged on our web site. Many of these images are reproduced into collectable limited edition prints. Since, as the creator of these works of art, I have a personal investment in them, I naturally oversee how they are used because they were created to promote my concepts. to continue
