Travis Walker - "Pop Art and Teton Peaks"

  • Summary

  • This week, Jenn sits down with the ever-inspiring visual artist Travis Walker. Jenn and Travis met when she covered his work for Artist’s Magazine. At the time she was moving back to the Teton region of the Rockies after five years of living in Colorado. This may seem like wanderlust to some, but a trait that these two share is that they were both brought up as military brats. Both of them come from a background that allows a unique world view. For Travis, this perspective still feeds his creativity. His developed trait of seeing the world with fresh eyes allows him to capture moments on canvas with beautiful aptitude. Travis was born in Tokyo, Japan, an Air Force brat whose nomadic childhood was filled with comic books, science fiction, and drawing.  After graduating with a degree in Painting and Printmaking at Virginia Commonwealth University, the allure of the western landscape drew him to the valley of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where he has lived and worked for nearly 20 years, blending contemporary landscape painting with the fictional worlds of his past.

    Travis Walker's work can be found at Altamira Fine Art in Jackson, Wyoming and Scottsdale, Arizona; Visions West Contemporary in Montana and Denver, Colorado; and The Art Spirit Gallery in Coeur D'Alene, Idaho.  He has been featured in SouthWest Art Magazine, Big Sky Journal, Mountain Living, Forbes, and The Guardian.  He is the founder of the nonprofit Teton Artlab, an Artist In Residence program based in Jackson Hole.
