Guild member since 2000

Keith has worked as a full time potter since 1991, and his family has been making pottery for four generations. He produces wheel-thrown stoneware pottery in a shed built by his father. While he uses some techniques common to the southern folk style of his family, he has incorporated the techniques used by contemporary studio potters, such as temperature control and kilns heated with electricity and natural gas. Keith has studied Oriental pottery and medieval European pottery. This led him to new forms, colors, and textures in his work.
