  About our artists  
 
Brian Koontz
Brian grew up as a military kid whose family finally settled in a small farming community inIllinois. He studied art at Parkland College and the University of Illinois. Over the past 20 years he has been fortunate to have worked with many great artists such as Norman Courtney, Martin Blank, and Dale Chihuly to name a few.

As a body worker and artist, Brian is fascinated with the human form. His work is an abstract interpretation of the human body - how it moves, gestures and stands in space. His focus is on capturing movement with form, color and brush strokes. In his glass work he leaves tool marks as a reminder to the viewer of the presence he had in making the work.
