If it is an oil painting, you won’t have the depth or physical brush strokes, but the color it’s perfect and it’s very difficult to see the difference between the original and the copy. Acrylic or watercolor are even harder to tell the difference between the original and the copy. I believe the process is called Giclee. That way, if the water on the frame doesn’t work, you can still display the treasure and enjoy it in your home.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169311984190759254.post-40307597518930561022022-01-29T13:15:10.883-08:002022-01-29T13:15:10.883-08:00Some excellent advice here = thank you!

I know I buy them all the time. Spraying water on the back of the cotton to shrink the canvas that has been painted is fine, we use this trick all the time to fix a sagging canvas. Framing the canvas sometimes is the only thing that will help these thin cheap version. I have had to put a thin frame on to stop the warping, and was happier with the painting after, Lonely Heart Cowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03656692004715671041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169311984190759254.post-4232607525896946502021-03-01T15:41:05.837-08:002021-03-01T15:41:05.837-08:00Thank you so very much for scouring the different ...Thank you so very much for scouring the different sites for us. :) Mine is twice as warped as the one you used as your example. The top left corner and the bottom right corner are sticking out 2" from the wall. I painted it for my mom years ago and after she passed away I brought it home with me and put it in storage for a couple months. How wet should I get the wood? Is it okay if some water gets on the canvass? Any ideas how to get the nicotine tar off of them? My dad was a heavy smoker.

At least, your concept is letting me think again and i can put 4 heavy objects on the canvas instead of putting two heavy objects on it.
