The initial examination of a painting begins at my studio and takes about forty-five minutes. There is no charge for this initial examination. An ultra-violet examination of the painting surface is often done at that time along with a discussion with the client to determine the extent of the conservation treatment that is required to achieve desired outcome. All conservation fees are based on the necessary needs of each painting, its condition and the proposed treatment options. Compliance with professional guidelines as well as maintaining high personal standards has built my reputation within the art community of the northwest.
SPECIAL NOTE: An accurate estimate cannot be determined without the painting in hand. Estimates will not be given based on a photo.
