Brian Lutz is a celebrity illustrator from Connecticut. He is an award-winning artist and has been recognized by American Illustration, Communication Arts, 3×3 Magazine, Creative Quarterly, and Society of Illustrators of Los Angeles.

Some of his clients include Los Angeles Times, Texas Monthly, New York Magazine/Vulture, UConn Magazine, and Upper Deck.
With a strong social media presence, Lutz live drawings of his art draws you into his creative flow.
