Hold the pickles! A fine demand for the diner but substitutions and limitations aren't necessarily workable in conservation... or are they. Sometimes the full serving of treatments that a painting may require aren't in play for various reasons; timeline issues, budgetary constraints, or the clients themselves actually like the look of the painting but just want some corrections. For these pieces, when applicable, it's possible to approach the conservation a la carte.
**PLEASE NOTE**
Mike is ok. He took a fall and out of abundance of caution he was in a wheel chair and neck brace. He’s recovering well and will beck to himself shortly. As Cokey put it: “the vagaries of old age!”

You mention that the hot table is invaluable in modern conservation. It would be very interesting to watch a video on conservation techniques and tools through the ages! It feels like we get a fairly good understanding of what materials were used since you need to remove them all of the time, but would they face the paintings? Would they try pressure/heat treatments with other methods? These are questions I never thought I'd have - thank you for putting them into my brain. ^^

The completely audible gasp of horror I let out when you mentioned that someone had actually decided to glue the canvas to the stretcher was insane. Like I had to throw my hand over my mouth I was so shocked lol. And I was so confused when you just started to wrench the canvas away, I was terrified about what would happen if the bond was good enough in some areas that the canvas actually ripped or something. So the reveal that it actually wasn't the original canvas that had been glued on not only made the previous couple of minutes suddenly make sense, it was the most relieving thing that anyone could have told me in that moment!

As a framer, I love watching you work. It's amazing what I get asked to do that really falls into the category of restoration. I have the vocabulary to encourage customers to seek expert restoration and conservation thanks to watching your channel. It can be a challenge to convince someone the cost is worth it. Whatever influence I have, I try to use on behalf of the artist, aa well as the customer, so that the future longevity and purity of the piece is paramount. Occasionally I need to be adamant, for the sake of that integrity. Though I wish I had more knowledge, and could do more on behalf of the customer, as well as the artist who is rarely present.

You’ve made me remember that I have had a pretty little oil painting sitting in my closet for a couple years. I found it in the laundry room of my building one day (where residents put non-trash items for others to take if they want). It’s a 16x20 oil painting of a beautiful autumn scene with a pond and rowboat by one Fred Bradshaw. Makes me wonder if a resident painted it, it’s pretty cool! I also realized that I might own a few too many tiger artworks.. 🤔 maybe I should auction or donate them to make room for more works that reflect my personality.

And I admit fully that there are perms with out activators that I’ve used on the same client twice. But putting on the solution is nothing compared with the work it takes to wrap and perm. That’s what your money is spent on. And my knowledge that I’m using the right solution for the hair. I do love watching these perschnicked. 💨
