December Cover Artist: Travis Andersen
Travis Andersen came to Bozeman to attend MSU in the early nineties and never left. Since that time, he has become a fixture in the local art scene, as well as in the ski community. His photos have appeared in numerous publications, and his fine art prints can be seen in homes and businesses throughout the valley, and beyond. Travis is inspired by a life lived in the mountains of Montana and on the slopes at Bridger Bowl. He and his wife Alicia have a son, Mikey, who attends Gallatin High School and loves to ski and play soccer and football.
In recent years, Travis and Alicia have created a collection of vintage style poster art that captures the spirit of historic travel posters from the past. The posters are often created from photos Travis takes and paintings Alicia makes from those photos. They have several ski, fishing, and Yellowstone inspired images that they sell online and in local shops. The cover image is the latest addition to the Bridger series, and will be available this winter.
Travis also runs White Creek Printing, a service dedicated to providing other artists and photographers with the highest quality fine art prints available in Bozeman. If you are a local artist, contact Travis for more information on custom printing for your art business.
