Ms Keith's work is influenced by people, her surroundings and aspects of her personal life. Dreams play an important role in many works, where she captures often disturbing but mostly surreal moments in small, detailed areas of her larger works.It is important to examine her works in great detail to see images receding into the surface and to fully enjoy the complexity and whimsical nature of her illustrative style.

Ms Keith has exhibited widely and her works are to be found in collections all around the world.
