Caring for Your Investment
Proper care ensures your original artwork remains vibrant for generations. Here's what every collector needs to know:
Temperature consideration: Earth pigments are remarkably stable, but avoid extreme heat or cold.
Light considerations: Avoid strong sunlight, but don't hide them in dark corners.
Transporting: Your artwork will be perfectly okay with relocation and re-hanging but take care when lifting and stacking to ensure that the canvas doesn't get stretched or damaged, and hold glazed pieces on both sides rather than one edge.
Framing wisdom: Canvas and board pieces do not need to be framed, but museum-quality glass protects paper pieces without altering the viewing experience.
Humidity balance: Keep away from steamy bathrooms or damp basements.
Cleaning guidance: A soft, dry brush removes dust from unframed pieces, and a soft dry cloth can be used for framed works. Never use water or chemicals to clean your painting.
Documentation: Keep your Providence Certificate somewhere safe.
Your investment in earth pigment art should bring joy for decades.
