Using acrylic or oil on canvas, Eddie Mitchell paints with a very detailed application of exuberant color, sometimes with a smooth application, other times with broken brushstrokes. Eddie employs a masterful usage of elements from various art movements, including Impressionism and Pointillism along with Modern art's contemporary compositions and subject matter. Mitchell has a Bachelor of Fine Art from Cleveland Institute of Art, and now teaches at both the Cleveland Institute of Art and Lakeland Community College. His use of color is extravagant and euphoric. He focuses on the florals, water, and sky, that bring him joy in everyday life. Mitchell is not afraid of texture and will often use pointillism along with impasto paint to create his images.

Artist Statement:
I love the fact that light engenders a sense of extravagant joy and uplifting optimism. It is this sense of joy and optimism that I am endeavoring to convey in my paintings.
