Cleaning and Restoring a Lost Portrait, Bringing it back to LIFE
This portrait arrived at my studio in an incredibly poor condition, bearing the weight of time and previous, well-intentioned but ultimately harmful restorations. Sometimes, even with the right materials and techniques, poor execution can lead to disastrous results. Fortunately, this painting found its way to my care, where meticulous restoration processes were carried out. The mistakes of the past have been carefully reversed, and the portrait has been given a new life with the correct approach, materials, and execution. The transformation speaks for itself.

    I follow three restorers on YT and I do so because of the amazing detailed and careful work done on these works of art. You are one of them. I like the way you take us through the process, explaining it to us clearly and concisely. Thank you. Might I make a suggestion? Sometimes the way you position the camera creates a bit of glare, which makes it difficult for us to see better your work. Perhaps, a change in the camera's position would help? Thanks again for the pleasure you offer us with your work.

      Thank you so much for your kind words and for including me among the restorers you follow-that truly means a lot to me! I’m so glad you enjoy the detailed work and the way I explain the restoration process.😊 Your suggestion about the camera positioning is very much appreciated. I’ll definitely take it into account and work on reducing glare in future videos to improve the viewing experience. At the time I took these images, I didn’t really know how to work with the camera very well. Although I still have some difficulties now, I will definitely try to improve.😊Your feedback is invaluable, and it helps me keep improving. Thank you again for your support and for sharing this journey with me

    The sides of the original antique frames were rarely gilded. They were painted with an ochre or sepia paint - less expensive than the gold leaf, and this would have been the norm… Air-drying clay is easier to use in your silicon mold - than fiddling about with plaster or gesso. It holds the detail beautifully, trims easily and sits down nicely within the gaps. The “under paint” is BOLE - a form of diluted clay which can be red, yellow, blue or black. It’s applied warm, and provides the deep tones underneath the gold leaves when burnished. Shellac? Nope. A light rub with beeswax is a more natural substance to offer a bit of protection to your completed work.

    Using washi kozo paper is the first step to protecting this painting, but using bees wax in the 'stabilization' foundation sounds counter-productive to me! At some time in many years to come, when this painting comes back up for cleaning and possible restoration work, how on this Earth will that bees wax-resin backing be removed from the painting, if it's been melted and then ironed into the original canvas?!

Thank you for sharing the whole process with us, and telling us what you will choose to do differently next time. 👏👏👏👏 Aside from the work process, in this video I really liked watching your brushwork. Whether you were applying gelatine, wax, soap, varnish, or retouching paint, each time you had a brush in your hands your movements were very graceful. It was lovely to see, in the same way as watching someone dancing is lovely to see.
