Manage episode 413206517 series 2406292
On today’s episode, Johnny chats with artist Mitchell Coffman. They talk about Michell’s artwork and his unique focus on the military. He’s had a strong connection with the military his whole life and he works hard to make sure he can tell the story of these strong, selfless men. The military mentality and inspiration have bled into his artwork and lifestyle. It shows through his work, his views on improving his craft, and in how he interacts with people. Johnny and Mitchell also bond over their shared view on dedication and the frustrating state of talk-over-action that is so prevalent these days.
Leveraging a rich legacy of artistic influence, Mitchel Coffman is a New York City-based, award-winning independent artist passionate about storytelling. Art has always been a profound love of his, cultivated by the dream that his father, an illustrator, never saw realized. Driven by his father’s unfulfilled aspirations, Coffman embarked on a journey to actualize his artistic dreams.
Coffman’s artistic foundation was shaped by working alongside skilled professionals such as animator Walter Storozuk during his formative years. Later, in graduate school, Coffman was a studio apprentice to the esteemed master painter Jorge Alvarez. The diverse teachings from these two mentors uniquely shaped Coffman’s artistic style. Coffman’s practice blends tradition and innovation. He aspires to create work that echoes the depth of his artistic journey. You can find out more about him on his website and Instagram.
