Alex Janvier: Woodland Voice, ca 1988
acrylic on jute canvas, 60″ x 36″
Project Highlights
A painting by a highly respected Western Canadian artist had tears in the canvas, some accretions and previous restorations. The jute canvas forms the background, including in the tear areas, so a detailed and precise repair with conservation materials utilizing canvas re-weaving techniques was required for invisible mends to achieve the best appearance.
