Painting Restoration and Conservation

David Hawksford has had years of experience and training with painting restorations. Painting conservation is a tedious process that needs to be done with patience and a steady hand. An eye for proper coatings, colors and fillers is important for the end result of the painting that is being refinished. Painting conservation is on structural and aesthetic pieces that have been damaged. Damage can happen to paintings in many different ways.

The most common is the way the painting has been stored overtime and the handling of the art. There are factors that can make painting conservation even more difficult. The era of the art work can make it especially difficult to match acrylics and oils. Painting restoration should only be done by trained professionals. The risk of losing the artwork from an untrained eye is a large possibility when not working with an expert.
