Art Restoration

admin — Thu, 11 Aug 2011 09:57:24 +0000

Here is a restoration Lisa did for Parkchester South Condominiums in the Bronx. Architectural rendering on canvas backed by plywood. This was difficult restoration because the painting consisted of pencil, water based paints, like water color, and inks. These materials would easily be washed away by someone with less experience. The painting also consisted of some acrylic paint and also some markers. For this restoration we needed heavy cleaning, minor surface repairs and some in-painting. It was pretty big too – approx. size 46” x 76”

Testing the painting little by little to determine the cleaning processes

See difference left to right mid way through cleaning

First Varnishing before final in-painting and final varnish

Detail after first cleaning

Border Detail is clean, but still in need of repair and in-painting with gold.

Date and signature details looking good after repairs and in-painting

So, here below is the painting before the restoration.

Before Restoration

And, here it is after restoration below.

After Restoration

As is so often the case, web pictures don’t do full justice to the real thing, but these certainly do show a great transformation. The subtleties of this painting are hard to see here, but it was a beauty when done and it looks great now on the conference wall at Parkchester South.

Shoreline Minimalist Series

admin — Fri, 18 Mar 2011 00:09:39 +0000

Here are just a few of a new minimal Shore Line series in color. They were shot on Sandy Hook Beach in New Jersey.

These web posts do little justice to these gorgeous prints .. you’ll have to see them in person to really get it.

I have printed them on fine art signature series museum papers that are truly stunning – the color is incredibly subtle and beautiful. People are really connecting with these images.

Here they are below on the wall framed in an elegant thin brushed aluminum.

As seen on the wall here:
Frame size: 26.25 x 22.25 inches
Image size: 16 x 12 inches
Printed on a stunning Hot Press museum grade cotton paper (paper size 22×17)
Price framed: $550 each

New Fish Series

admin — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 22:19:38 +0000

There are new abstracts, drawings and three new paintings from Lisa’s “fish” series.

“This series explores both the mystery and playfulness of the water. The ebb and flow of the interaction of the fish as they leap and frolic in and out of the light taking the currents with them as they dance.” LS

Blue painting SOLD

This diptych is 10′ wide, titled “River fish”
