"Fine-Arts" prints on paper
It is a process of printing on art paper using very high-quality pigment inks and printed in very high definition. Its level of conservation is exceptional (more than 100 years), its quality, depth, and richness of nuances exceeds the classic photo print on Argentic paper.

Glossy finish
Apart from its exceptional thickness, the fiber paper is composed of an alpha-cellulose base without acid and it is covered with barium sulphate, and a microporous layer absorption enhancing pigments during printing. A pure white color, non-yellowing to light, this paper is especially designed for resistance and aging. It is used by major museums worldwide as it offers excellent resolution, rendering deep and dense colors.

‘The stone cold mystery’ sets up for what should be a dramatic and exciting scene: a still from a swashbuckler perhaps. But it is not! The man cuts a diminished character, his life a parody.
The painting describes, through the use of both comedy and tragedy, the passing of time. The star of the show a middle aged man lost: his appetite to almost evaporated, his view of a universe so full of wonder clouded. In the foreground, a bullet fails to reach any momentum, instead flopping gracelessly to the ground. This could well be a description of the ark of life, where youthful ambitions and dreams fall flat on their faces, leaving behind a faded, impotent mind.

Rory Mitchell is a contemporary Norwegian painter. Although his working process relies heavily on a solid draughtsmanship, over the years this has been incorporated in a number of art disciplines, primarily oil painting and gouache painting. His intent is that the distorted lines and emotive colours lend themselves to the narratives he creates.
Today Mitchell works mostly with oil on canvas and creates figurative paintings with rich color palettes and Expressionist undertones.
Rory Mitchell was born in 1977, in Scotland, where he graduated from the Edinburgh College of Art.
