About the Item
Artist Comments
Artist Mitchell Freifeld paints a small building in a secluded roadside field. He captures a dramatic scene from a road trip through the Oklahoma backroads. "I related that the source for this painting was a one-and-only hamburger stand on the outskirts of a small town," shares Mitchell. "In the back, there was a large hard dirt parking lot where you could feel generations of coming-of-age drama and teenage dreams." Mitchell recalls stopping by and having cheeseburgers and fries—the best he has ever had.
About the Artist
Mitchell Freifeld cannot remember a time when he did not draw and paint. He won his first juried show at age 10 and decided that someday, he'd be a 'real painter.' He settled in the San Francisco Bay Area in the early '70s and got involved in the burgeoning tech industry. From there, he moved to Portland upon accepting an information technology position. On the drive home after being laid off the day of the September 11 terrorist attacks, he realized life is short and decided to devote himself full-time to painting. His work focuses on architecture and cityscapes, and portrays everyday places that become lost to our curiosity through sheer familiarity.
