BIO

I remember when I was 18 seeing a friend’s new tattoo. Immediately I knew that this was the genre I wanted to work in. So 1987 I apprenticed as a tattoo artist. My mission as a tattoo artist, was to use my artistic skills to help clients express their inner visions on their skin, and mark their rites of passage in a time honored way. I owned and ran a tattoo studio for many years. In this time I met many fantastic people, who in turn enriched my life experiences; it was very fulfilling to share in this holistic, shamanic experience with them. Towards the late nineties there were new missions growing deep inside of me that I felt compelled to express, but they were outside of the tattoo genre. So in 1999 I stopped tattooing. I then visited the USA and Canada. While in the USA, I spent time with the Navajo and Hopi tribes. In Canada I lived and worked with the Huron [Mohawk/Mohican] tribe on their reserve. I feel privileged to have been embraced by these people, some of whose traditions, craft skills and mystical healing arts I now incorporate into my art and my life today. I am inspired by the unseen, the mystical. When I am painting I go to a different world; a dark and symbolic world. Painting is the medium I feel is best suited to share these visions with you. They are my gift to you. S. V. Mitchell

THE BARDO

The ''Bardo'' in spiritual teachings is:: "The place in between"" death and rebirth. human souls can wonder aimlessly here.. But with guidance a individual can achieve enlightenment and or rebirth. in the ''BARDO'' the human sole faces horrors. in this confrontation, the individual can achieve liberation by embracing, excepting and understanding that these horrors are aspect of there shadow self, that need to be resolved before moving on into another life or ultimately the LIGHT. A visual insight into the ''BARDO'' is a great pre curser for us all, as we navigate the shadow of our own selves helping us achieve a greater understand of our human condition, aa we move towards the LIGHT
