I participated in an art walk/exhibition this past Sunday. During travel and exhibition two of my paintings was damaged, small tears/holes in the canvas.
Both paintings was recently varnished. Anyone have tips on the best way to mend them?
I have started looking this up and read different methods. Someone said to glue new canvas on the backside with PVC (if I remember correctly) glue.
I've seen Baumgartner restauration on Youtube and he usually glues small threads of canvas on the backside, but I don't now which glue he is using. Has also sometimes fills in the crack on the front with something, but I don't think any canvas is missing on mine so I don't think I have to do that.
