Artwork Conservation in-situ

There's no better feeling than returning a work of art back to a client; this 19th Century painting of a Brittany market scene by Eugene Deshayes required full treatment to regain the colour balances which the artist intended.

Please get in touch with any enquiries you have about your own artwork collection.

Our Lady & St Oswin's Church Tynemouth - Conservation Project Complete

This conservation project on site was a fantastic opportunity to work on three polychrome panel paintings which required careful cleaning and stabilising, and to restore genuine gold leaf gilding to the wooden scripture of the altar. A community presentation of the conservation project will take place in May 2025, dates will be published and all welcome.

They are two brilliant artists I greatly admire and had the privilege to work and live with since 2012, they are an important part of why I chose to study conservation of paintings and support artists.
