    Few questions…
    When placing in glass, did you check before stapling to make sure there were no contaminates under the glass?
    Why would you use tape with moisture when moisture is the reason you get mold? Why not acid free double-stick tape?

  • @tthomas9160

    They added gaps for ait flow, then put aluminum foil for a impenetrable barrier?

    • @creativecolours2022
      @creativecolours2022 8 месяцев назад

      They added aluminum foil in order to prevent any kind of humidity to pass from to the back cardboard to the card paper that they mounted the painting.
      That is not a bad idea but I'm of the opinion that this painting will mold again. And that because just vacuum the surface is not enough to eliminate the mold spores. What kills them is UV light. This painting needed 5 minutes under a UV lamp on both sides to kill whatever mold spores were left behind then careful cleaning to remove any stains and then retouching and framing into a vacuum frame case. I mean shielded into a air tight frame.
      It can be done but it is more expensive and time consuming.

    Too bad an amateur had a go at putting it in a dollar store frame the last time around.
    I wish the camera angles would show as much detail in the painting process, as it does in removing tacks, loading and rinsing the brush, and marking the mounting paper.

    This painting will mold again at some point. Vacuum the mold from its surface is not enough to eliminate all mold spores. What destroys them completely is either heat ( if that is possible) or UV light. Either direct sun light or one of these UV lamps. 5 minutes under direct sunlight or 5 minutes under a UV lamp would have sterilized completely the surface of the painting without affecting the watercolours. And then you could proceed safely to the retouching.

    • @lrla8657
      @lrla8657 7 месяцев назад

      And why would you add tape with moisture to the back of it?

    • @creativecolours2022
      @creativecolours2022 7 месяцев назад +2

      @@lrla8657 That is supposed to dry but if you haven't remove completely the mold and the mold spores from the surface of the painting, the painting will mold again. It has nothing to do with the materials that are used on the back of the painting because the mold grows with the environmental humidity. The archival support on the back will only delay a bit the regrowth of the mold that can't be eliminated by simply brushing the surface.
      Unless she did some other kind of cleaning as well that it is not shown on the video.
      But from what is shown on the video I wouldn't say that it followed the best method to remove the mold from this artwork.

      UV light will destroy the pigments in the paint and turn the ivory yellow and brittle. As long as the painting is kept in a climate controlled room without excessive humidity it should be alright.

    • @creativecolours2022

      @@nrml76 Not in just five minutes. The blue UV lights are not after all that bright.
      And in any case it is better to be safe than sorry because you never know what will be the conditions that this item will be stored. That is the problem after all for both artists and restorers. That they can never know how their customers will handle the artworks even if they have the best of intentions. So it is better to eliminate the/any risk factors.

    And to think revisionists would say that painting should be destroyed because of the nasty ivory trade, but i thimk that would be disrespectful to the elephant memory. You cant bring back that elephant but you can stop it happening again, although perhaps a source of naturally expired elephant ivory could be established ,if only human greed wouldn't corrupt it.

    • @GeologicalNerd

      Eh? If it's a historical piece, sure keep it. Otherwise keeping a more modern one would only perpetuate the ivory trade and poaching.

  • @shekharpatel

    If mat cutting and gluing are your things, this video is for you. This is more a reframing than a restoration of 'painting". Looong and boring video. The painting is generic, and kitsch. It could very well be on Buffalo or other cattle horn strips glued together.
    Most deceptive part of the video was the painting was deliberately kept out of focus in the beginning, the restoration was clearly 'digital' which was surreptitiously added at the very end.
    More of an annoying video ... NOT ASMR.

    Did I miss the part where the painting was restored? All I saw was vacuuming the mold, then some paint dabbing around the edge. Then we get "the final results are stunning"..... Uh, outside of vacuuming the mold, what did the restorer do? To the casual observer it looks like nothing.

    Loved the work, till he was stupid enough to use framer's tape. Dear god when will people learn how bad an idea it is and how totally unnecessary. All it does is make it harder, messier and more of an issue with future conservation and re-framing. What for? So it looks tidy if you look at the back? That should not be a priority. Doing it properly should look just fine on it's own and this did. Amateur moment from a pro, but I guess that happens sometimes when tradition overrides pragmatism.
