Robert E Keating

Artist Statement:

My passion lies in capturing the colors of nature when they are most vivid: a simple mist rolling off a lake in the early hours of morning, the drama of galloping horses, the fluid grace of the wings of an eagle, and the many moods and desires of the sea.

I started painting in the late nineteen-eighties. My instructor was Ruth Rheinghaus who was a member of the prestigious Salmagunde Club in Manhattan. Our class held annual shows at 280 Park Avenue and through it I became hooked as I was always able to sell my work.

I am a member of the Kershner Gallery Committee and curate on shows. My passion also is as an author of several novels. The most current is Islands of Vengeance. You can find them on Amazon.com.
