I’m a Mississippi watercolorist and a huge fan . I am so interested in the way you described the spiritual and the feeling of having been inhabited. It brings on a ghostly feeling type of feeling that I try to express. You described your work perfectly! My best wishes to you .

His joy and enthusiasm rubs off on you even via video! I'd buy one of his pieces just to get a piece of that care and enthusiasm, if I had that kind of money.

This is really great story I was just researching some watercolorist and been completely taken by Deans art, just starting my water colour studies, after working with other mediums for many years. So much feeling in his work truly incredible.

I'm delighted to see Dean Mitchell "in person" and hear his comments because I have always loved his work, especially his New Orleans paintings (my home town). He's such an inspiration.
