Born in Donaghadee Co Down, Mitchell became a recognized maritime artist early on. He immigrated to Maryport to work on the Maryport-Carlisle Railway as a carriage and train painter. Around 1863 he resigned from the engine works at Grasslot to become a full-time artist. He remained in Maryport working as an artist until his death in 1900.</p> <p>Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting.</p>
