Question

oil painting

Hi i have a beautiful oil painting but it needs some repairs. I am trying to figure out if the value is there to have it restored anything you can tell me will be appreciated.

Answer
Hello.....depending on where you live.....most urban centers do have
craftsmen who do repairs on oil paintings so check your yellow pages...also look under
art appraisals..and ask the person who does them if he/she can recommend a repair facility.

Also check out this website if you believe you might be able to do the repairs yourself:
