Brian T. Keller received his Bachelors Degree from Bowling Green State University, Ohio, in 1971. He received his Master of Arts in 1975. Brians early accomplishments included works in graphic design and illustrations. In 1980 he left commercial art to dedicate his energies to Fine Art. In the mid 80s Brian encountered Taos, Santa Fe, and the great desert southwest. The clean, dry air, and clear light of the southwest were a major influence on Brians understanding of light in his works. Today, this influence is evident as warm colorful glows, reflected light, and cool shadows dominate his paintings. In 1991 Brian began work in egg tempera. This delicate paint was uniquely suited to his painting style. tempera is applied in numerous thin glazes, enabling Brian to express his philosophy of light.
