“The icon in this image are the women who fight for their rights and stand up against the pigs who work against them.
Dim Donald was certainly top of mind when I made that, but so was Weinstein, Roger Ailes,.. there are many asshats who fit the suit.“
Travis Millard is a Los Angeles-based artist and illustrator celebrated for his fluid linework, offbeat humor, and unique visual storytelling. His drawings often explore absurdity, introspection, and everyday strangeness, brought to life through hand-drawn zines, sketchbooks, and mixed-media works.
Raised in Kansas City, Millard developed an early passion for drawing, nurtured by a creative household and a love for comics and DIY culture. Over time, he carved out a distinctive voice in the world of independent art through his personal imprint, Fudge Factory Comics, which showcases his illustrations, prints, and zines.
Millard’s work has been featured in Mad Magazine, Wired, and The Hollywood Reporter, and he has contributed artwork to album covers, skateboard graphics, and film projects—most notably for Paul Thomas Anderson’s Inherent Vice. His practice spans both fine art and commercial illustration, with a strong presence in the zine and street art communities.
He continues to exhibit his work, publish self-made books, and collaborate across disciplines while maintaining a strong independent ethos.
I work primarily in realism, and am interested in the concepts of solitude, liminality, nostalgia, and the sublime.
In my work, I paint scenes that reinterpret my personal experiences and the people and places I’ve encountered. I strive to blur the boundary between the observer and the observed. The most intriguing aspect of painting is the potential to position the viewer in front of a window, allowing them to glance into a world that evokes joy or sorrow or an inexplicable nostalgia for a place they’ve never been before. These emotions probe the subtleties of our shared human experiences, and are my motivation for making art.”
