Hipsters got nothin on young Stalin. 

“On July 1st, up to 70 of California’s 279 state parks may be closed due to budget cuts enacted by the Governor and Legislature. State park closures will erode California’s commitment and legacy to irreplaceable natural, cultural and historic resources. Additionally, closing state parks will impact California’s travel and tourism industry and reduce much-needed revenues for local businesses.”

George Skullington by Mike Mitchell

This is the piece that I’ll be showing in the Supersonic
Electronic Invitational which opens Thursday, January 5th at Spoke
Art in San Francisco, CA. It’s a limited, signed and numbered edition of 25. 16”x20” giclee. 

It’s been a long time since I put this much time into a painting. It’s based on steel engraving done by William Holl of Washington Receiving a Salute on the Field of Trentonby which was painted by John Faed. 

If you live near San Francisco, I highly recommend checking it out. It’s probably the most talent heavy show I’ve been a part of and I’m really stoked to be among such great artists.
