I provide watercolor painting restoration, repair, and cleaning. If your watercolor painting received damage or if it is old and has become faded, torn, or chipped over time, I can restore your precious painting back to its original condition.

The acidity of the paper is known cause changes in the pigment of the watercolor painting and appearance of the piece. The pH of the paper not being neutralized can cause issues with the image over time.

If there is a harmful acidic mat, tape or backing to the piece, I will remove it and replace it with a material that will not cause damage to the artwork.

Excess moisture or chemicals are also causes of disturbance to the physical structure of the piece. A variety of reasons cause discoloration; including fading from light, “foxing,” which refers to reddish-brown stains, and iron marks. Special chemicals are used to remove stains on the painting.
