This painting had perishing varnish, areas of flaking paint & a tear. Our team performed treatments to resolve these and stabilise the piece. The original colours are shunning.

Retouching the losses on this oil painting is going well - for lighter colours this needs to be completed gradually, building the layers up so the retouched area blends seamlessly with the original paint

Delighted with this restoration, here's the before & after for multiple large tear repairs as part of an insurance claim. It was a pleasure to deliver it back to our very pleased client last week!

Fantastic before & after photographs for recent tear repair on contemporary painting. You would never know looking at the completed photo that it had been damaged - and that’s exactly how it should be.
