All of us want our homes and offices to be as appealing and personalized as possible, where we are able to feel a sense of belonging to them. This is what you can do: a personalized oil painting of yourself, you and your loved ones, or that of your favorite scenery!

However, as soon as you remove all the packaging materials, you realized that you are lost as to what to do after you had it up. How should you go about maintaining it? After all, good paintings are meant to last, if handled with proper care.

Here are some suggestions on how to care for your painting:

1. The very first step in maintaining your canvas painting is to frame it up. Frames act as cushion against any physical shocks and impacts. Frames can be purchase easily off the rack. You could also send it to a local framer as well. Be reminded not to frame your painting under a glass panel to avoid damaging the painting’s surface.

2. Avoid direct contact with the surface of the paintings. All handling should be done via the sides of the wooden frames.

3. Steer clear of areas with excessive heat, cold and humidity. These environmental factors will cause the canvas to turn moist, expand and shrink periodically hence inflicting damage to the painting.

4. Avoid placing your painting in extreme light of darkness. Extensive exposure to light causes the painting to fade away while being kept in darkness for too long will deepen the colour of the painting as well.

5. Do not leave the paintings near or on pointed objects. These sharp edges could inflict dents or cuts on your fine portraits, hence disfiguring them.

6. Apply a layer of varnish to the painted surface of your oil painting to serve as an extra layer of protection from the environment.

7. Dust your paintings occasionally to prevent dirt from accumulating. Use soft and clean brushes to brush the dirt off gently or a dry micro fibre cloth to lift these particles up. Alternatively, you can also employ a low power vacuum with a brush attachment.

8. If your oil painting has been badly damage, bring it to a professional cleaning and restoration service shop. The experts will reinstate the vibrancy of the painting which is lost. Although such services are relatively costly, to be able to get back a beautiful painting certainly outweighs the cost incurred.

In fact, caring for your prize paintings does require an additional effort. However, these steps are simple and realistic, anyone could achieve it! I’m sure that all of us would like to preserve our precious memories for as long as all we can and present this pride of ours to future generations.
