Story behind the painting
This painting lived in my mind several days before I started to paint. The vintage tones, and the weight in the man's eyes. Life has been loud lately, and my mind crowded.
When I was young, I had a side of the closet where I stored all my craft supplies. I had a small paint apron, it was see-through with little crafts. I was always busy at the dining table, all my stuff was everywhere. My mother, quietly peeling potatoes for dinner, always listening while I talked and talked and talked. Lately, with my mind so busy, I’ve started painting again, to find silence and let time pass by.
This painting is me, I'm the old man. The teddybear is a symbol of what I left behind: my inner child. My safe space on the dining table. My artistic side.
And I’ve found it.

Paper
Premium Fine Art White Velvet 270 gsm
White Velvet is a museum-quality paper developed for premium art prints. This high-end paper is used in print studios and galleries worldwide for art reproductions and exhibitions. Weighing 270 grams per square meter, the paper feels firm yet smooth. The paper combines 25% cotton and 75% alpha-cellulose, a refined plant fiber. This blend creates a natural texture without gloss or reflection. It contributes to a subtle refined appearance that suits artworks where soft tones and depth are important. Compared to standard fine art papers, White Velvet has higher whiteness, making colors appear brighter and contrasts sharper. It is acid- and lignin-free, ensuring that prints will remain vibrant and intact when properly cared for. The paper works perfectly with pigment inks, producing prints that capture the original artwork.
