Biography
Keith is an Artist, Author and Illustrator who has been fascinated by the colour and movement in nature since childhood. As a self-taught artist, Keith initially honed his skills by studying and specialising in painting the oriental and beautifully ornamental fish, Koi (Nishikigoi). Keith has embraced the same
work ethos that the most eminent Japanese Koi breeders use in
nurturing their Champions:
Dedication, patience, detail, enthusiasm and passion.
These skills enabled Keith to expand and experiment with his subject matter, from Tropical Marine fish and other Sealife inspired by his Scuba Diving experiences to Food Art, inspired by…..eating!
Keith’s love of colour, imagination and drawing has led him to writing, illustrating and self-publishing his own range of children’s picture books. His stories are based on things he cares about or seen…from “Jack”, their old
one-eyed cat (Pirate Jack the One-eyed Cat) to stories about a Tropical Marine Fish including conservation and the rubbish in our oceans (Little Angelica – A little fish on her BIG adventure & Little Angelica – To Save our Sea).
Keith was thrilled to receive a hand written letter from Sir David Attenborough about his book ‘Little Angelica – To Save our Sea’.
