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.

This painting is not just a still life but a portal to the past, a world of childhood memories where sweets were special, and each candy carried a piece of history. The iconic wrappers of legendary Soviet treats—Mishka na Severe and Yoshkina Korovka—are depicted with striking precision, capturing the texture of the paper, the play of shadows, and even the slight creases, as if these candies had just been pulled from the pocket of a winter coat.
The technique—combining graphite pencil, oil pastels, and colored pencils—adds depth and vibrancy to the artwork.
I aimed to convey the sensation of light, emphasizing the shape of the candies and creating the illusion of their material presence. The soft shadows on the white background enhance the sense of airiness, leaving space for imagination.
This piece fits seamlessly into a series of 10 artworks dedicated to the visual culture of everyday life. By acquiring it as part of a set, a collector gains not just individual images but an entire gallery of artifacts from a bygone era. This is art that stirs emotions, evokes nostalgia, and tells stories that feel personal to everyone.
