S1: E6 Bernard Mitchell

Bernard Mitchell in his home office

For the sixth episode, I talk to Bernard Mitchell about his extensive photographic career. Bernard is always behind the camera, photographing hundreds of artists for his Welsh Arts Archive. For this episode, I wanted to hear Bernard’s story. We discuss his journey from journalist photographer in the 1960s to having his book published in 2017 and the growth of galleries across Wales. The episode finishes on a note to aspiring artists to ‘never give up.’
