About

Self

Jonathan Mitchell is a former editorial international model with over 12 years experience learning and practicing photography. He has exhibited domestically and internationally, published by National Geographic and won multiple photographic awards.

Creating Artwork is my liberation from the normality of life. Art is the highest expression of the human spirit. I create artwork through various mediums to preserve time, to commit moments to eternity amidst the light and darkness in this world.

All photographs are for sale internationally, and photographic services are available upon discussion in the Contact section of this website.

To everybody who has helped me, taught me, and believed in me along the way, I am truly grateful. My family, friends, and teachers. I thank you.

“The meaning of life is to find your gift...The purpose of life is to give it away.” - Pablo Picasso
