There can be poetry in any project; the image, the required work and the process of conservation. This painting of a few poor souls adrift, heavily damaged and worse for wear perfectly mirrors this moment in the studio where motivation is waning, the impetus to focus and dive into complicated projects just isn't there and a general malaise has settled. So how does one find a way to drum up energy and interest, how does one chart a course home... well, you'll just have to watch to find out.

Oil paint actually polymerizes into something very close to modern plastics. Linoleum was originally a mix of linseed and cork or other solids on canvas - basically just an oil painting with extra binder! If it can be used as flooring, you know it's tough stuff.

@Stettafire 3 года назад

I'm probably the only human alive who actually enjoys painting feet. Feet have all kinds of interesting shapes. If you start with a basic construction with a curved box it's not so bad. You just need to know how to turn that box around the place and remember, the bow has a curve because your foot (even flat feet, just to less of an extent) has an arch.

Wouldn’t you love to know the back story of these paintings? Someone loved the picture enough to purchase it, how did it lose the love so that it’s now in this condition? What caused the holes, tears and paint loss? I think it would be fascinating to know the how and why paintings such as this end up in Julian’s studio.

@louckykoneko 3 года назад

possibly bought by someone who did care, eventually (possibly a few generations later) passed on to someone who didn't care, kept by people who didn't care for a while (again, possibly a few generations) until it is eventually passed on to someone who does care and brings it to Julian. alternatively, the owners all did care but didn't notice the discoloring for such a long time because it happened gradually, eventually the painting was damaged in a move/during an accident/whatever and kept in storage for a while before someone remembered or rediscovered it and decided to bring it to Julian.

So I bought it from a person in NY who bought it from an estate sale. I loved it as I see it as a beautiful display of hope during a bleak moment. Everything is uncertain but they aren't alone. I have no idea who the artist is, I've been told it was panted sometime in the 1800's and is "European New School". I still can't get over how beautifully they painted the ocean, something I had no clue about until after this restoration. I love that he made a video of it!

@mwater_moon2865 3 года назад

A person claiming to be the owner (Grew K) commented on Schooner Girl's comment to say that, "Well I got my notification that there was a new video and lo and behold there was my painting. I sat down and watched with the kids. It was absolutely emotional watching the varnish come off and the sea roar to life. I got the painting for the faces of the two Mariners. Even with the varnish and the terrible condition the canvas was in I had to have it. It just spoke to me. I am shocked and pretty darn excited!" So based on that and their other comments in the thread they didn't know it was done yet. But Covid times aren't really the best to try filming reactions of owners, esp. if they're living well outside of Chicago.

@@maryturner2899 good questions. I assumed he missed the footage or had cleaned it at a different time. As far as varnish first or after, a lot of times it seems to have to do with his preference. Sometimes doing the varnish first will make it easier for him to match the colors. He seems to feel it out with each painting. I get the impression that he would rather do less coats of varnish after the painting is done. He seems to really enjoy waiting until the painting is completed before adding varnish, it’s like the big reveal….
