Transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary
About
My name is Jana Koran-Uppling
I started my passion for art taking photography class in high school. Then I explored art class in collage and received a degree in Electronic Media of Arts at NIU.
Throughout college I became familiar with the Chicago artist community and was able to start decorative painting at Modern Masters after graduating. Eventually I found my niche and started my own business painting children's rooms and restaurants. I helped design and painted over 20 restaurants in the Chicagoland area. That lead me to the design, creation and installation of mosaic tile art. Over a 10 year span I installed over 18 Bar Loui Restaurants across the country.
In2001 my husband and I moved to Lake Geneva and started a family. My home based studio allows us to produce small to large mosaic pieces.
