Kyle Polzin was born in Cuero, Texas in 1974. His family moved to Victoria in 1975 where he grew up working closely with his father to develop his artistic skills. Craftsmanship is not uncommon in the Polzin family. Kyle’s father is an artist, and both of his grandfathers were craftsmen as well as serious outdoorsmen. During his childhood, Kyle spent countless days on the Texas coast near Port O’Connor fishing the bays and the surf with his family, and he made regular trips to his grandparents to explore the countryside near Cuero. He attended public schools all the while, graduating from Victoria High School.

In 1992, Kyle entered Victoria College. There he began his formal training in the fine arts with emphasis in oil painting under the instruction of Larry Shook. After graduating from Victoria College, he had numerous opportunities to continue his artistic learning experience. In 1996 he participated in instructional sessions under master painter Dalhart Windberg. This highly motivational learning experience helped to launch Polzin's career in Fine Art. His work has been recognized by such organizations as Ducks Unlimited.

Currently he resides in Houston, Texas with his wife Leigh and daughter Kate.
