Artwork doesn't just hang on your wall. Sometimes it IS your wall. There are many painters in NYC, but only a few who do custom interior murals. Michael Mitchell is a member of this exclusive club.

Since 1970 Michael has been painting murals and creating painting effects for business and residential interiors. A jack of all styles, he has done trompe L'oeil, big robots and wild jungles - whatever the client has called for - with style and a confidence of brushstroke that is remarkable. Don't try this at home.
While many favor the unadorned wall as an antidote for small urban spaces and clutter, as Curtis has shown us, the magic of a mural has its place and can certainly add another dimension to a drab room.

Curtis has this guy beat, hands down!
I agree.
one New York word: schlock!
I love this stuff. Trompe l'oeil like this is great in a small space... guests love to talk about it.
Michael Mitchell is a fantastic muralist. I love his work. He redesigned my apartment and I'm hoping he'sll add painted decoration as soon as I can afford him!
Michael Mitchell rocks! I love the de Chirico-inspired work especially. Also the transformer.
Michael Mitchell generously uplifts everyday spaces with his design/art; he adorned my east village tenement bathroom with Etruscan goddesses, my southwest home with colorful stripes, and has created a vibrant design solution for a training center for young adults to learn retail skills. Michael uses his gifts to inspire both children and adults -- to transform the mundane into the elegant, the ordinary into the cherished, and the plain into calming oasis.
