Art has always been an important part of Travis’s life first oil painting and then watercolors. He also likes to use his hands to do woodturnings and to design and build knives. Travis has been active members in such art groups as the Four State Regional Art club, the Picassas, Southwest Watercolor Society, the Artists of Dripping Springs, and the Bunkhouse Gang at Wenmohs Ranch. Following is a brief statement of his artistic philosophy:
“Artist are often the dreamers that promote change in our social and cultural lives as well as chroniclers of our actions or lack thereof. Our art can be expressed through many media, styles, and subject matters. Watercolor is spontaneous and unpredictable, and that excites my artistic nature. Further watercolors inherent luminosity and flexibility in application and textures enhance my ability to express my subjects. As artists we not only endeavor to trick the eye but must attempt to stimulate the mind and spirit!”
