Kitchen Paintings

"Kitchen Paintings: Watercolors of Alix Hallman Travis" is a vibrant tribute to everyday beauty, captured through the lens of watercolor still life.

Inspired by the spontaneity of jazz, Travis paints with fluid motion and emotional instinct, creating colorful compositions that blend impressionism with personal storytelling.
