Keeley is a professional illustrator and concept artist with a dedication to teaching and inspiring young creatives. He holds a Bachelor's of Fine Arts in Illustration from California State University, Fullerton, and has trained under master painters at the Art Students League of NY. He was selected by the Metropolitan Museum of Art for their Copyist Program, through which he developed his series, "Dragons of New York City," that displayed as a solo exhibition. As the lead artist for Boosted Reality's upcoming tabletop game, RiftZone: Contact, and an event artist for DrawnTogether, Keeley brings a wealth of industry experience to every classroom.

One of the most important aspects of his artistic practice is the ability to invoke childhood wonder. Keeley is passionate about supporting young students in expanding their creative vocabularies. He believes it's too rare that students get the opportunity to paint under the advisement of someone with atelier training -- a personal experience of his own he deeply treasures, and now pays forward -- and that every single student has enormous potential.
