Cool Stuff: Mike Mitchell's Movie Character Portraits At The Mondo Gallery

Is your pop culture art collection cluttered with too many huge movie posters? Do you have a full stack of 27 x 40 inch paper laying around and not enough wall space to display? Are you looking for something smaller, more tasteful but still as awesome and exciting? Mike Mitchell is here to help.

Mitchell is one of the most popular artists out there today. He first gained national attention with his "I'm With Coco" poster for Conan O'Brien and has continued to do beautiful work putting a unique spin on popular culture. Last year, his Just Like Us exhibit at Gallery 1988 in Los Angeles started a collectors craze and now he's back for his second show. This one takes popular, and some not-so-popular, movie characters and provides them each with a detailed, classy portrait.

The exhibit opens Friday April 26 at the Mondo Gallery in Austin, Texas and, after the jump, you can see about half the images in the show.

Mike Mitchell's show opens April 26 from 7-10 p.m. and will be on display through May 25. The gallery is located at 4115 Guadalupe St. Austin, TX. Here's a small selection of Mitchell's work in the show.
