TIPS ON HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR OIL PAINTING
Caring for your painting will ensure its longevity. There are preventative measures that can and should be taken when owning an oil painting. Oils are one of the most sensitive means of artistic media, and damages are common. Handling of the artwork, hanging, cleaning and storage can all cause different types of damage, including:
- The cracking of paint,
- Distortions of the canvas,
- Fading and discoloration of the painting
Handling of the artwork too often will inevitably cause damage, so be certain to take preventative measures when moving the painting. Always hold the Oil Painting from the back of the stretcher bar to prevent indenting the canvas and damaging it. Be sure to seal and insulate. In a move, this will prevent destruction from hot and cold temperature changes, as well as bumps and bangs. Bubble wrap your painting even if moving it in a protective portfolio. This way, if the cover is punctured, you still have a safety net.
Hanging Your painting is an important consideration. You must consider 'people' damage. Avoid hanging your painting in an area where people may bump it. Your painting should theoretically be hung at eye level, but in narrow spaces like hallways, a bit higher wouldn't hurt. 8 to 10 inches breathing room above furniture should salvage the painting from mishap. Another consideration is cigarette smoke. If you have a designated smoke area, hang up a poster, this is not where you want your oil painting.
Cleaning your painting is risky. Very lightly and infrequently dusting with a lint free silk cloth or a soft brush may be okay, but it is best to rely on experts and professionals to help with full cleaning and/or repair. |
