Ruth Ann Mitchell

Mixed Media

Inspired by her medium…

Back in 1998, when Ruth Ann joined a beginning watercolor class, she forgot about time…totally absorbed in play…like a kid who forgot to go home for dinner. Today, she still feels that pull as a mixed media artist.

Ruth Ann’s work may include acrylic paints covered by oils, mixed with bee’s wax, papers, stamps and paste. She may carve or sand into the layers below and then rebuild. The artist is both fascinated and masterful in curating materials with subjects ranging from recognizable landscapes to totally abstracted spaces with hidden shapes.

The artist has been represented by numerous galleries and included in both local and national juried exhibitions.
