The Beginning

Hello friends and welcome to Preston Mitchell Art.  My new blog is primarily about art, but I will also share other thoughts that I find interesting. I am a person of strong faith in Jesus and the local church.  But I love hanging with all kinds of people.  I hope I make you think a little and make you laugh as well.  

As a former corporate executive and pastor, I've seen and done a lot.  About five years ago, I started taking painting lessons from Ruth Francis (www.ruthfrancis.com) because I wanted to do something different in life.  I've spent most of my life living in black and white.  Now I realize there is more color than most of us can see and experience.  After taking lessons from Jim Humphrey  (www.jamesahumphrey.com), he encouraged me to start selling some of my work.  I'm excited about selling some of my art work. So, here we are!

Trying to start a website for a non-computer guy like me is a killer.  While I'm striving to create a work of website art, you can find my work on www.etsy.com. My store name is PaintingsByRPM.  I really enjoy doing Texas landscapes.  I'm also trying to do more contemporary and modern work inspired by my son (@camronmitchell on Twitter) who is a great singer/songwriter in Nashville.  If he likes something I've done, I consider it a huge compliment.

Keep in touch!
