After graduating in 1995 with a degree in fine arts from Loughborough College of Art, Mitcheson moved to Oakthorpe in Leicestershire where he established a studio.[1] His inspirations include Henri Rousseau, Eric Gill and Henry Moore.[2] His preferred medium is limestone, but he has expanded to work in other mediums.
