John R. Keyser, sculptor, is responsible for the creativity in these original works. John earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the prestigious Maryland Institute of Art in Baltimore, Maryland. He pursued a Masters of fine art degree from the University of New Mexico.
John's gift for design captures the whimsy, grace and contour of the female figure. This image has been incorporated into a line of candleholders, furniture and sculptures. John R. Keyser, Inc. consumes almost a third of the Corrales home site. The artwork is cut from sheets of steel by a state of the art opti-graph computer that follows Keyser's hand drawn designs. Each piece is filed, finished and lacquered to John's high standards of quality. John personally paints each wall piece with powerful brushstrokes in coppers, bronze, and metallic colors.
