Jeffry Mitchell

Jeffry Mitchell was born in Seattle. He received his MFA in printmaking at the Tyler School of Art, Temple University, Philadelphia. For more than 30 years Mitchell has produced idiosyncratic sculptures, drawings, and prints. His oeuvre seamlessly combines high and low references that span religion, sex, nature, fine art, and folk and decorative arts traditions. Mitchell has been nominated for numerous national awards and was a recipient of a Joan Mitchell Foundation grant in 2009. Mitchell’s work can be found in many private and public collections including the Seattle Art Museum, Philadelphia Art Museum, Fogg Art Museum (Harvard University), and the Portland Art Museum. Sheila first met Jeffry in 1983 when she was working as a hired apprentice and he was a young visiting artist. Since that time they have spent many productive studio hours working together.
