Studio practice

A contemporary impression of the familiar.

Carisa Mitchell paints the quiet South from memory, observation, and the feeling a place leaves behind: porches, side roads, and wide fields in late-afternoon light. Her impressionist oils let color and gesture carry the scene, making work that feels immediate yet enduring, made to live with and to reveal something new over time.

Artist statement

I paint the quiet South in impressionist oils: ordinary places, remembered in light. Porches, side roads, kudzu fences, and wide fields at the hour when the light turns to honey. My work comes from a tradition of Southern gothic storytelling, but my subject is light and memory, not shadow. Painted with a loose, contemporary impressionist hand and energetic brushwork, each piece builds color from warm greys and glowing shadows to hold the warmth of a single, fleeting moment.
