At a young age, his family moved to Victoria, Texas 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 a gifted artist and both of his grandfathers were skilled craftsmen. They were also 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 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 and began his formal training in the fine arts, with emphasis in oil painting under the instruction of Larry Shook. After graduating from college, he had numerous opportunities to continue his artistic learning experience. In 1996 he participated in instructional sessions under the master painter, Dalhart Windberg. This highly motivational learning experience helped to launch Kyle’s career in Fine Art.       His work has attracted the attention of such organizations as Ducks Unlimited, and Windberg Enterprises Inc. has begun publishing limited edition reproductions of Kyle’s original works. His paintings have also be featured in Southwest Art Magazine, Art of the West, and on the cover of Texas outdoors Journal. In November 2007, Southwest Gallery hosted his first major one-man show, which featured twenty-seven original works by the artist. Due to the high interest in the show, the paintings were available for purchase by Draw only. The show was an overwhelming success. All twenty-seven pieces sold on opening night.       Kyle’s work is finding it’s way into corporate and private collections worldwide and his popularity is ever increasing.
