Before undertaking a degree in painting at Wolverhampton Polytechnic he studied Drawing and Printmaking at Heatherey’s School of Art in Chelsea. Paul Caldwell and Daphne Todd were both tutors.<br />During his time at Wolverhampton he concentrated on the traditional genres of landscape, the figure and still life. At that time, this was a rather provocative choice. The prevailing feeling in many British arts schools at that time, was that the canon of classical painting was morally and aesthetically suspect. Mitchell was one of a small group who were trying to find a way of making an art that was at once modern, informed by the classical tradition, and accessible to the ordinary viewer.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/891915817881922733-3481680199671932471?l=juliangordonmitchell.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Julian Mitchellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01698771541725446225noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-891915817881922733.post-8205372257450963142010-01-04T14:27:00.000-08:002010-01-04T14:29:00.774-08:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g0Dt8ZRcYsE/S0Jrfd91kQI/AAAAAAAAAAo/HijFAoMsFoU/s1600-h/IMG_0735.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 326px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5423015089671606530" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g0Dt8ZRcYsE/S0Jrfd91kQI/AAAAAAAAAAo/HijFAoMsFoU/s400/IMG_0735.JPG" /></a><br /><div>Device</div><div>Oil on Canvas</div><div>18x24 inches</div><div>Completed 2009</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/891915817881922733-820537225745096314?l=juliangordonmitchell.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Julian Mitchellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01698771541725446225noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-891915817881922733.post-30836895757370461022010-01-04T14:00:00.000-08:002010-01-04T14:03:41.962-08:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g0Dt8ZRcYsE/S0JlYxjnCNI/AAAAAAAAAAU/LTsz671zLQE/s1600-h/DSCN2115.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 322px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5423008377601460434" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g0Dt8ZRcYsE/S0JlYxjnCNI/AAAAAAAAAAU/LTsz671zLQE/s400/DSCN2115.JPG" /></a><br /><div>The Big Nowhere</div><div>Oil on Canvas</div><div>Completed 2006</div><div>Exhibited Diorama 2007</div><div>60x48 inches</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/891915817881922733-3083689575737046102?l=juliangordonmitchell.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Julian Mitchellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01698771541725446225noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-891915817881922733.post-58601391655006901002010-01-04T13:51:00.000-08:002010-01-04T13:57:43.394-08:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g0Dt8ZRcYsE/S0Jj2q5mjiI/AAAAAAAAAAM/FzHRbhDQ_KQ/s1600-h/DSCN2106.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 229px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5423006692187475490" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_g0Dt8ZRcYsE/S0Jj2q5mjiI/AAAAAAAAAAM/FzHRbhDQ_KQ/s320/DSCN2106.JPG" /></a><br /><div>Mandrake Flower</div><div>Oil on Canvas</div><div>Completed 2006</div><div>18x24 inches </div><div>Exhibited Diorama 2008 </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/891915817881922733-5860139165500690100?l=juliangordonmitchell.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Julian Mitchellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01698771541725446225noreply@blogger.com0
