Before and after: repairing water damage
Repairing water damage on a piece of hard board

A picture of an oil painting that had suffered because of moisture. Several paintings were stacked on top of each other and a deep crack appeared at the top of the painting. Probably a scratch at first and later moisture getting into that area, causing the fibers swell. I made the crack a bit wide, filled it in with gesso and that retouched all the damaged areas.
