"Through my art, I hope to bring a further awareness and appreciation for the world around us and for the wildlife we share our lives with. This is our heritage and something that must be preserved for future generations to enjoy." Distinguished Wildlife Artist. Bob Travers, of Fletcher, North Carolina, has international recognition and an overflowing list of awards and credits too lengthily to mention here. Suffice to say that this man has achieved a lofty position in the world of wildlife art, accomplished through a combination of his love of animals, education, and foremost his amazing talent. Known to many as one of the masters of detail, Bob has the unique ability to breath life into the paintings he creates.
Bob brings to life images of our breathtaking mountain scenery and the wildlife that surround us. Working one on one with the animals he paints, Bob can often be found in enclosures studying the anatomy, fur texture and movements of his subjects. Elements that will later be put to use in creating the most life like image possible. Bob is a member of the renowned Society of Animal Artists whose annual Museum tour features the finest wildlife artists in the world today.
