About the artist:

Keith Shannon, aka Keefer, an Air Force Brat of Irish descent, was born in Japan and presently lives in the Lake Tahoe area of California. Keefer creates a myriad of whimsical sculpted works, including his Reindeer Christmas Collection, the Noah’s Ark Collection, Moose Family, Goofballs, and more. His pieces are sculpted out of clay, then molded and reproduced in California out of 100% lead-free pewter. Each piece is hand finished by the artist, then stamped. Keefer’s attention to detail is remarkable. His characters bring out the child in everyone.
