Keith Evans is based in North Wales in the UK. For many years he was a portrait and landscape painter in oils, pastel and watercolour. He had several successful exhibitions, selling work to private and corporate buyers in the UK and Europe.

In the late 1980s he began to use photography to augment sketches prior to painting. This interest grew as the challenge of capturing what was actually in front of the camera became greater than interpreting the subject with pigments. Since 1999, Keith has moved almost exclusively into photography

Keith specialises in fine art studio work in black and white. The play of light on skin is the driving force behind his work, much of which is based on the projection of linear shapes onto the curvature of the natural form. When working in colour, projected colours often replace the linear shapes. In all of his studio work Keith’s main objective is to control the light in order to isolate the main elements of the subject.
