Foltz holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Forestry and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Photography from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale. As a young boy, he loved spending time in rural Northwest Illinois where he lived with his grandfather and grandmother. For many hours, he used to play in the barn and worked by the side of his grandmother in the garden. He also helped his grandfather to sort pigs. After college, he decided to trade the calm life of rural America for a modern life in the city. After close to 20 years as a commercial advertising photographer, Foltz decided to go back to his hometown to raise his 2 boys. Unfortunately, the landscape in Illinois had totally changed. The days of the small farms were long gone. Fence lines and wooden barns had disappeared, making way for business and housing developments. He decided to turn his camera to the Midwest landscape. Today, framed Trent Foltz art can be seen in many homes around the globe.
