“Working with kids is fun because I can openly plot to rip off their wild stylings and there’s nothing they can do about it!” – Travis Millard

Travis Millard creates some of the quirkiest and most endearing drawings full of characters it's tough not to relate to. This illustrator also has a great sense of humor. He live in a log cabin in Echo Park, Los Angeles, California with his illustrator girlfriend, Mel Kadel. Art has always been in the blood of Travis, his mother used to do a lot of crafty toll painting and small oil pieces with folksy sayings. She'd always encourage Travis and his brother to draw or make a cardboard fort or anything else just to keep their hands busy.
I came across Travis Millard's works from Juxtapoz Magazine. The illustrations are somewhat quirky and extremely well-crafted. He seems to have ordinary objects magnified and interpreted in a different perspective, usually depicting politics satirized, personal strife, fabricated characters and aggressive violence. His works are true evidence of passion do get you far.
