Mondo Gallery Presents Character Portraits from Classic Films
Mondo has announced their next art gallery show featuring some really cool artwork from Mike Mitchell. The art show is called "A Collection of Portraits From Icons Of Film," and as you'll see, a lot of our favorite movie characters have been included. The artist had this to say about his art,
For the portrait series, I wanted to keep the personalities there, at least how they exist in my own mind. Then apply that to a traditional portrait, something that most of these characters wouldn't be doing. There's an ironic sense about them that I like, but I also just really love these dudes for who they are, and I didn't want to take too much of that away. When I watch a movie and really connect with a character, I often feel a strong urge to draw/paint that person. This show is allowing me to do that, it's giving me the chance to catch up on years of great characters that I appreciate and admire.
The show will run from April 26th to May 25th at the Mondo Gallery located at 4115 Guadalupe St. in Austin, TX. The gallery will open to the public on April 26th from 7:00 - 10:00 pm with regular business hours to follow for the show's duration.
