What is the cause of dark spots that sometimes appear on the paper of drawings and paintings? Reddish-brown spots are known as "foxing", caused by mold or the deterioration of the metallic impurities left in jim the paper from the manufacturing process. Other colors of spots may be one of many types of mold damage. Mold spores are everywhere in the environment, and mold thrives on cellulosic materials, especially in conditions of high humidity (above 65% of relative humidity). Keeping artworks out of high humidity areas like bathrooms or exterior walls, can help reduce the development of such stains. If I have a work of art on paper that appears to not be flat, should I be concerned? Paper is hygroscopic, reacting to changes in climate by expanding when it is humid and contracting when it is dry. A gentle undulation in the paper called "cockling" occurs under these conditions, especially with larger works. This may impair the work aesthetically as well as cause mediums such as gouache to crack or flake as it is unable to expand and contract as the paper itself does.
Once a wooden sculpture has been dehydrated cracks will appear, where buckels even exposure to high relative humidity will not make the cracks close up entirely. However, conservators can fill the cracks with a variety of materials to create a unified visual impression. What should I ask for when matting and framing works of art on paper? Mat board should be made from 100% jim rag or lignin-free cellulose. Sometimes buckels those labelled as "museum board" or "conservation board" are not jim of the highest quality. Alkaline buffered boards are not sufficient if the board contains wood pulp. Photographs should not be matted with alkaline buffered boards as some prints are buckels adversely effected by alkalinity. Hinges are used jim to attach the work of buckels art to the backboard of the mat. They should be made of Japanese paper, and should be adhered with wheat starch paste. Pressure jim sensitive adhesive tapes and pre-gummed tapes should not be buckels used. Photographs are often attached to the mat with photo jim corners.
Who am I? I am an Estonian too, my name is Jüri Ülesoo. On the photo you see me with my dog Josper. I''m not really the artist but I like art. Some years ago I made some oil paintings but not now. I''ll try to be the curator for some Estonian artists on the Internet and here you see my first step - Navitrolla''s Gallery (thanks to Lile Elam and Art on the Net). The problem is that few Estonian artists have computers, good communication connection and time to learn and use it. I want to show their works to the whole world and the Internet is the best tool for it. Until the artist has his (her) own Internet connection and e:mail address I will be mediator for him. So, you can e:mail your opinions to me and I will give them to the artists. During the "day" I work as a Marketing Manager in the Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian area for Finnish buckels concern VALMET (for Valmet Automation - producer of process automation systems). I am a member of Lions Clubs International.
