About this listen

In this episode of the Pencil Pushers podcast, host Mike Rosado interviews illustrator Travis Knight, based in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Travis's work, inspired by vintage comics, punk zines, horror, and sci-fi, spans multiple mediums including painting, digital illustration, and sculpture. After a decade as a graphic designer, Travis transitioned full-time to illustration, landing clients such as Netflix, Metallica, DC Comics, and the Washington Post. Notably, his viral fake Cracker Barrel logo was even shared by Stephen King. They discuss Travis's journey from his early influences and interests in comics and horror, through his various design jobs, to his big breaks like the Stranger Things gig with Netflix. Travis also shares insights into his artistic process, his passion for analog and digital media, and recent projects including a country music dictionary.
