At present I work with fused, painted and cast glass. My limited resources mean a concentration on glass that is fused then painted and cast forms. I enjoy modelling in clay then casting from these sculptures.
I hope to reintroduce sand blasting into my range of techniques in the near future.

This series of works” Rank” invites you to have a view in a world where square is an ideal lifestyle. Each object is pursuing a dream, to be the squarest in the room. Showcasing perspectives on intense chaotic of competitive for an objective. Two different approaches: aiming to be the best or to be the first.
I have been working with glass for over forty years now, experimenting with many different techniques. For me it is the most fascinating material. Glass inspires me again and again to explore its wonderful qualities. I am moved by the change glass undergoes in my work: the transformation of clear sheets to saturated coloured shapes, the translucent melting structures with linear textures or expressive patterns. It is exciting to catch the light and bind it up, to weave it into a cloth of colour, air and light.
Winner of the 2024 Amanda Moriarty Memorial Prize.
I love working with light, colours, textures, volumes and image on glass. Myworks are the result of a constant exploration of techniques and materials.
Moods and nature are my topics. My favourite technique is Digital image transfer on glass, experimental method created by Andrea da Ponte. I made laminated castings on glass ofbioluminescent gellyfish and mushrooms, with the luminescent glaze wich contains fluorite stone, that turns luminous at night or under UV light.
‘The Alchemy of Fungi’ springs from my captivation with fungi, their diverse characteristics and their often-mysterious roles within the ecosystem. They not only have a wide range of colours and unique forms, but it’s their extraordinary abilities that inspire me. This piece aims to highlight and explore the complex and ecologic importance of the fungi kingdom within a scientific setting, delving into their ability to heal both humans and the planet, while also acknowledging their capacity to harm species.
Update Jan 2026 – Keith’s Work nominated for the 2026 John Ruskin Art Prize. The piece will be exhibited at the prestigious Trinity Buoy Wharf London through February 2026. Selected from an international entry of over four thousand entries. The piece will be displayed with a handful of shortlisted entries. My thanks to the prestigious selection panel. Meanwhile a new project for ancient warriors is unfolding and experimenting with deep formed pate de’ verre.
Sell dichroic jewellery, run workshops making tea light holders, suncatchers, curves and the like.
My recent sculptures are organic in nature. They are inspired by and made from a range of sometimes strange and always wonderful natural objects and organisms. I have a particular love for fungi and I use them in an allegorical way. For me they symbolise the fragility of ecological systems and organisms in a state of crisis, as well as the beauty and complexity of the natural world. Glass is the most magical, ethereal and sublime material and it captures something of the mystery and wonder of the world and life around us. My pieces are sometimes anthropomorphic and playful, at other times abstract and emotionally charged. Very often I explore ideas around corporeality, bodily functions and human health in relation to the health of the planet, life cycles, ageing, growth and decay.
