Jim Keifer

Jim Keifer has been “playing” with games since childhood.

His first art projects were designing, tweaking, and improvising riffs off his favorite childhood board games. He discovered painting in high school, graduated with a fine arts degree from Notre Dame, and then embarked on a long and successful career in consumer products, toy and game design.

“I've spent my life as a designer.

But this Art of the Game is personal – because I want to help other people recapture these pure moments of fun.”

Jim has created games for some of the nation’s most famous game companies, and holds 15 game- related patents. But every advancement up the management ladder pushed him further away from the game-board art that had inspired him. Eventually, he combined his two loves by creating Monopoly, The Art! the new fine art series and SCRABBLE, The Art!
