About the Artist

I remember when I was 18 seeing a friend’s new tattoo. Immediately I knew that this was the genre I wanted to work in. So 1987 I apprenticed as a tattoo artist.
My mission as a tattoo artist, was to use my artistic skills to help clients express their inner visions on their skin, and mark their rites of passage
in a time honoured way. I owned and ran a tattoo studio for many years. In this time I met many fantastic people, who in turn enriched my life experiences; it was very fulfilling to share in this holistic, shamanic experience with them.
Towards the late nineties there were new missions growing deep inside of me that I felt compelled to express, but they were outside of the tattoo genre. So in 1999 I stopped tattooing.
I then visited the USA and Canada. While in the USA, I spent time with the Navajo and Hopi tribes. In Canada I lived and worked with the Huron [Mohawk/Mohican] tribe on their reserve. I feel privileged to have been embraced by these people, some of whose traditions, craft skills and mystical healing arts I now incorporate into my art and my life today.
I am inspired by the unseen, the mystical. When I am painting I go to a different world; a dark and symbolic world. Painting is the medium I feel is best suited to share these visions with you. They are my gift to you.
S. V. Mitchell

LONDON EXHIBITION, 2009 May
"SATURNALIA A FEAST FOR FOOLS"
May 29th-June 7th 2009
Horse Hospital. London.
Visionary Artist Steven V. Mitchell has challenged the establishment and our imagination again, with his biggest solo exhibit since the mind bending 'Pandemonium' took on us a fantastic and unforgettable journey.
'Saturnalia: A Feast for Fools' was held at the legendary London home for the subversive and the
controversial art form.

BATH EXHIBITION,2008 June
"PANDEMONIUM IN THE ROSE GARDEN"
Walcot street Mortuary chapel
Bath June 2008
Beyond the bridge between the realm of reality and magic exists a world of appearances that is only accessible by those select few MASTERS whose faculties subordinate the conventional means of ordinary man. STEVEN MITCHELL is one of these MASTERS!
Keith Wigdor 'Surrealism Now'

AMSTERDAM EXHIBITION,2009 September
"RETURN OF THE KING"
The visionary artist
S. V. Mitchell, will be holding his first art Exhibition in the Netherlands at Gallery Chiellerie in Amsterdam
Sept 25th-Oct 8th ,2009
All of the artworks in Steven Mitchell’s, “Return of the King ” lays testament to the fact that the access to the ancient dream is more than a devilishly insinuating temptation, it’s a sacrifice
of the human spirit to the unseen
forces of the magical that Mitchell creates with his palette.
