My favorite painting is by my wife’s grandmother’s childhood neighbor who only showed one painting in her life (circa 1963). I’m sure that an art critic would tear it to pieces, but to me it’s beautiful. I feel lucky to have it in my house. It’s starting to deteriorate and I need to find somebody to restore it, but I don’t want to entrust it to anybody I can afford.
- Projectiboga 3y agoMake it a hobby project. First to figure out is what is it on and then the paint type. From there you can research how to maybe restore and to preserve and slow or stop the degradation. Find books use AnnasArchive if they aren't in your library after researching books about restoration and preservation.
