“Existential Glow” will showcase Owens’ talent for capturing light in paint, whether it be in the night sky or bouncing from clouds, or the eerie glow of pop scenes encased in lightbulbs. “After I have an idea, my process is usually painting from light to dark and glazing to build up the glow that I’m looking for,” Owens said, of his atmospheric, surreal, and satirical canvases.

About Travis Owens
Travis Owens is a self-taught painter born and raised in Seymour, Indiana. He’s proud to say he’s lived in the state his entire life, minus a few years traveling abroad and exploring the West Coast. “I felt compelled to see what else is out there,” Owens said. “By doing so, traveling has inspired me to take more meaning out of life and more interest in being creative. After living in Indianapolis for several years, I realized I wanted to paint ideas from home as well. I always feel like a person who can find beauty no matter where you are, and life comes full circle.”
Owens focuses on creating a sense of warmth and vibrancy in his art, inspired by home and travel. Owens hopes to take viewers on a visual journey of beauty and glowing light. “If I can make that happen, then I’ll feel like I’ve succeeded at one of the more meaningful parts of my life, besides my family,” Owens said.
