that was outstanding and emotionally compelling, I now look at dean Mitchells art in a new way, thank you for sharing this.
Wow...what a Master teacher within and his works presented outside of himself! Thank you for being you, Dean MItchell! As a Contemplative Psychology undergrad in my first semester returning to college at 60 y/o, w/an elective course in Watercolors, I'm elated to 'stumble' across you and your work. I'll be presenting your life and your work to my class as inspiration. Thank you!
I really enjoyed the work and the reasons behind the creation of these beautiful paintings. Thank you.
Very moving! WOW!
Wow, Dean went to the same college I did, I graduated the year before he started so I never met him but I also knew what it felt like nearly being tossed out of school my senior year because I was late coming up with my tuition.
Looking at his work I see he also got a case of "The Dean Canzani Gray Blues" that's an inside joke to anyone who went to CCAD and had Dean Canzani for "Color Concept Class".
I don't have very many fond memories of the school, they worked the livin' hell out of us and showed no pity to struggling students... you either "cut it" or you were out.
I remember we started out with the largest freshman class ever accepted into the school at that time, there were 278 of us, when I graduated there were only 34 of us left standing and only 6 of us who were in the Illustration Department which was the toughest major of them all.
I remember asking my English prof. why they were so cruel to us students and he said with a grin that it was their way of preparing us for the real world.
His depiction of poverty is beautiful.
