After the death of his father on the Eastern Front in the early years of WWII, Keil and his mother set out to make their way to West Berlin, where Keil grew up. At 15 years old, Keil met the infamous Otto Nagel, who became his first teacher and mentor. Nagel introduced Keil to painting techniques, taught him realistic imagery - a style of Keil painting that is quite rare, and how to deal with colors. As a young man, Keil accompanied Nagel on his tours of Berlin's back streets and met many artists over the years, including Otto Dix, a German artist that has sold paintings at over $100 million dollars. Over the next two decades, Keil met and began painting with his next mentor, Joan Miró, who frequently brought Pablo Picasso over to paint with the two.
