Watercolors
"Some of Mitchell's best work is a flawless realism that owes something to Neo-Classicism, but his subject matter is rigorously humane. His is an original American Vision." - Christian Science Monitor
Acrylics
"As much as we might like to discover some trick that explains Mitchell's extraordinary skill, the fact is, he has nothing up his sleeve but hard-earned virtuosity." The Times - Picaynne New Orleans, Louisiana
Oils
"Mr. Mitchell is a virtual modern-day Vermeer of ordinary black people given dignity through the eloquence of his concentration and touch." - The New York Times
