Many wonderful things have been happening since our transition to Mitchell Hill last April. One of the many facets of our expansion is the unveiling of The Mitchell Hill Collection, a series of lighting and furniture pieces designed by our very own Tyler Hill! In March 2016 we will have a collection event, with multiple new, exciting designs gracing the showroom floor. Until then check out Miranda, Rhett, Coleman, and other bespoke designs below.
Pieces from The Mitchell Hill Collection are available online at shopmitchellhill.com

On Friday, September 18, 2015 we will be celebrating the opening of ABSTRACTION/DIVERGENCE. Join us from 6-8pm next Friday or throughout the month long exhibit to experience these two new series.
Leeke was awarded a grant by the Charleston Scientific and Cultural Education Fund to produce a traveling exhibition entitled: View from Under the Microscope: Scientific Learning Through Art. Abstraction showcases a portion of this series of digital paintings and Leeke hopes to educate viewers of the importance of Phytoplankton in our waterways. Phytoplankton is a vital element in our ecosystems. To learn more about its importance, check out the sites below:

“The works in Abstraction are digital mixed media created on the computer from images I photographed with a Nikon Camera.
I then transformed them into original works of art output on photographic paper. “ -Alicia Leeke

While earning his BFA degree at Carnegie Mellon University, Potocki spent a summer studying in Rome, and also did design work for Westinghouse, Mellon Bank and US Steel. After graduating, Tom moved to New York City and was involved with the Pop Art movement, and produced the first “Happening” at Fire Island off Long Island. He then spent a year in Greece with a studio on the Island of Hydra. Upon returning to the US, Tom earned his MFA degree from Edinboro University and began a college teaching career, and was a founding member of the Northwestern PA Artists’ Association. During this time he continued to explore and develop his own vision through drawing, painting, sculpture and photography. His eclectic style has been described as having the look of refined graffiti – a style that grew out of a combination of his neoclassical training and involvement with the Abstract and Pop Art movements of his time.
“In the Divergence series, each painting is a step along the way
in my journey to discover how far I can push the creative process.” -Tom Potocki

Three of Mitchell Hill’s artists, Hirona Matsuda, Lisa Shimko, and Trever Webster, are #drawntowater and will be displaying their fascination with the aquatic in their exhibit opening Friday, August 28 from 6-9PM. “Drawn to Water” will be exhibiting through September 13.
Matsuda finds delight in using objects that others have deemed useless. She repurposes them in a way that directs the viewers attention to their aesthetic value, rather than their initial meaning.
Matsuda will introduce new aquascape assemblages during “Drawn to Water” and will include live plants, found trinkets, and movement.

Lisa Shimko releases the need for a cognitive/coherent harnessing of an idea and lets the irrational nature of daydreaming be her creative guide.
She invites us to dive into her whimsical sealife and water inspired paintings during the exhibit.

Trever Webster’s mixed media work challenges viewers to decode his seemingly-random, numerical explosions and intricate compositions.
Trever will continue the illustrious story he began prior to 2013 with seascapes, pirate escapades during the exhibit.
