Nicola Wellband reviewed: Painting Restoration

"Thank you Rachale for a fascinating day learning the methods and skills of art restoration in your garden studio, everything was so interesting and I was extremely pleased with the restoration of my oil painting. Your knowledge and teaching was wonderful, it was one of the best courses I’ve attended."

Stephanie Wilkinson reviewed: Painting Restoration

"Absolutely loved this course led by Rachael! I took an old 1880’s oil painting along and she explained the methods needed to carefully remove dirt, old varnish and wax which then brightened the painting and revealed details previously hidden. I am now continuing with it at home, removing some old filler and will revarnish, retouch where needed and put it in a frame. She also demonstrated other techniques eg how to repair a tear, fill tiny holes, etc. Rachael is a fabulous tutor, highly recommend. "

Chris Williams reviewed: Painting Restoration

"A really enjoyable and rewarding day. Rachael is superb at condensing her years of experience and training into a day packed with instruction, advice, guidance and all kinds of other tips. This was my second visit, having done a day two years ago and feeling I could use a refresher, and I will doubtless be back for more as the more you learn, the more you realise how many other skills there are that she can help you acquire."
