William Koch
A student of the arts for most of his life he believes that art can be learned. It takes diligence and hard work to get there. We can listen and learn from other artists about ,techniques and styles, but to be special, an artist needs to feel the story they are telling. Life's experiences are a value resource in our education. The road can be frustrating and full of disappointments. However the true artist never gives up. The fight is worth it.
Bill's art is displayed in many corporate and private collections throughout the World.

Retired Lt. Col. from the U. S. Air Force became an active wood carver. Andy loved the outdoors, So carving animals and birds were a natural fit. To improve his skills, Andy took his first watercolor art class in 2018 at the Cuyahoga Valley Art Center with my then-friend, Betty Gribble, instructed by Sally Henson. As my focus on art increased, I resumed carving and carved shore birds, autumn leaves, and feathers. He enjoys the feeling when people touch his art to see if the feathers are real.
