John R. Keyser
Metal Artist

John R. Keyser, sculptor, is responsible for the creativity in the original works featured on this page. 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.

Currently living in New Mexico, John acquired the spirit of the southwest that is reflected in many of his designs. Inspired by the southwest landscape, his interest turned to the rich history of the area and a fascination with the petroglyph images and their universal context.

John is probably best know for his copyright Dancer series. 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.
