Travis Walker 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 Tayloe Piggott Galllery in Jackson, Wyoming and Visions West Contemporary in Montana and Denver, Colorado. 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.
