Care Instructions for Original Oil Paintings

Display: Hang your painting away from direct sunlight and areas of high humidity (like bathrooms or kitchens) to prevent fading or warping.

Cleaning: Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth or feather duster. Do not use water, sprays, or cleaning products on the surface.

Handling: Always handle the painting with clean, dry hands, holding the frame or edges rather than the painted surface.

Framing (if unframed): For added protection, consider professional framing with archival materials.

Storage (if not displayed): Store upright in a cool, dry place. Avoid stacking canvases directly against one another — use acid-free paper or bubble wrap between pieces.

Long-term care: Oil paintings naturally harden and cure over time. If desired, they can be professionally cleaned or re-varnished after many years to refresh their appearance.
