KEITH RENTSCHLER
Painter
Painter
Artistic flair. Perfect balance. Clean lines. Remarkable precision and attention to detail.
Many of the same characteristics of Keith's finished carpentry and furniture-making have flowed beautifully into his paintings. The transition is even more impressive when you consider that it was only a few years ago that he picked up his brushes with serious intentions.
In 2013, Keith decided to dial back his carpentry work during the winter, and pick up his paints instead. He had plenty of subjects in mind. His three sons are now grown, but the families often vacation together. It might be a week on the coast of Maine or a caravan across the country to explore the Southwest, Utah or Yellowstone. Besides their passion for travel, Keith an his sons also share a passion for photography. The images they collect on their trips make great references. Add Keith's extraordinary artistic talent and a habit for custom-making his own frame for each painting, and you have a thoroughly original piece of art.
The transition from career tradesman to fine artist might be a challenge to some. But Keith nailed it immediately.
