Workshops

Travis’ workshops focus on creating expressive, narrative-driven ceramic sculpture through a balance of structure, observation, and surface exploration. Working with both animal forms and the human figure, students learn to build pieces that feel grounded, intentional, and alive.

“With my work I am constructing characters, often humorous, each focused on its own individual narrative. These stories are based on mundane day-to-day life, past struggles, and real people. Throughout our lives we encounter many “characters” and create our own stories. Some of these people and stories become part of our personal identity as we pass them on to those around us.”
