Restoration & Conservation

After over 37 years of retail experience in art and picture framing, we feel qualified to handle your art with the care and experience it deserves. We offer conservation and restoration for most of your fine arts. We specialize in restorations of canvas paintings, both oil and acrylic. All work is supervised by Edward Nader, Jr. with over 20 years of certification and nearly 37 years experience. A Certified Picture Framer must pass certification exams and
have stingent guidelines in which to practice.

During the restoration process, it is necessary to remove all the varnish in order to properly restore the painting. Old varnish is much darker than new varnish, and will have years of atmospheric pollution, therefore once removed, the true colors in the painting will be revealed and the painting will be much brighter in appearance.


Restoration & Conservation Services for Canvas Include:

• the lining of canvas that are weak and torn
• repainting of damaged areas
• cleaning and varnishing

Our framing team here at Nader's Gallery works hard to help conserve and restore our costumers pieces. Please feel welcome to stop in to speak with one of our staff about your restoration needs. You can also reach us by phone at: 318.868.3021.
