On returning to England he worked as a couture milliner while doing regular illustration work for magazines. He is now a full-time illustrator.

He studied Graphics at Yarmouth Art College and went on to work for the Jim Henson Company. In 1995 Keith created Bob the Builder, now a billion dollar brand and in 2001 he formed his own production company, Chapman Entertainment.
