Keith's Bio
Keith is a native of Wallace, Nova Scotia. An area known for its historic sandstone. First teaching himself how to carve wood. He went on to learn about the art of bone carving from the Maori while travelling in New Zealand. Keith continues to hone his skills with wood, bone & stone.
Keith received formal training in drafting from the College of Geographic Sciences in Lawrencetown, Nova Scotia, and obtained further training in engraving while working in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Since returning home Keith has picked up the tradition of making sandstone monuments from his uncle, whose family has worked with sandstone for generations.
A fine eye for detail and an insistence upon quality are benchmarks of Keith's work. Examples of his work have been found in print and on television including Saltscapes Magazine and CBC's The Week The Women Went. Keith would be happy to discuss ideas with you to ensure that your monument, sign or special stone exceeds your expectations!

Testimonials
On behalf of my family, I want to thank Keith for making our Dad's headstone last year.
When we started we didn't know exactly what we wanted or how this process works. Keith was quick to respond with options, accurate quotes, and answers to any questions we had. Keith designed a headstone that surpassed our expectations. Most importantly, we adjusted the design countless times and Keith never made us feel rushed or that our indecisiveness was an inconvenience. His support and beautiful work gave us one less thing to worry about and we'll always be grateful for that.

I had a memorial bench made by KES. Keith helped me with the right design and was able to put the inscription I desired on it. The stone used was so beautiful and knowing it's something that will last is comforting. Wonderful workmanship. Thanks again Keith.
