Artist Mike Mitch

Art, it's what you need to buy.

This site will feature not only my new paintings
but also an overview of my work as an artist.
You will see many boxed constructions or ["boxes"]
a medium I worked in for almost thirty years.
I also paint on paper and canvas both with oils and acrylics.
I was trained as a painter and received an MFA in painting
from Western Michigan University in 1976.
With graduation came the loss of the university
supplied studio. I was forced to work in the cramped
confines of my basement studio. Due to the lack of
space, I turned to making small boxed constructions.
I have taken many detours over the past years into
painting and "Voodoo Doll" making, but the work
I am currently doing is the most satisfying work I’ve
ever done. Please check back to this site as I will update
not only new works but also open the vaults for more golden oldies.
