Home of Oil Painting Restoration by Expert Restorer Alan Brown

Alan did an excellent job of restoring a family heirloom oil painting. We were very pleased with the result - well worth the wait for such diligent care and attention on the restoration.

Best restoration place in the area

Alan's services are in demand so we had to wait until he was able to begin on our19th century oil painting. The painting had a lot of overpainting so was cracked and paint was flaking off. The ornate frame was also missing large chunks. Alan removed the overpainting, stabilised the canvas and renovated the frame. We are delighted with the restoration work and would highly recommend his services.

I needed an oil painting of a seascape and I successfully bid for one on line. When I received the painting I was disappointed with its condition so I took it to Alan Brown for restoration and re-framing. I was delighted with the result, the colours were again vibrant and the frame he chose added a new dimension to the painting.

I am so impressed with the way Alan has restored my painting. It had been mistreated for many years and had some bad scuff marks and water damage. Alan removed the old varnish, removed the badly done over-painting, filled and touched up where needed and re-varnished. He also sensitively restored the frame. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services.

I have brought a 170 year old painting at Bonhams auction hoping (gambling) that it could be restored. I took the painting to Alan to have all the old varnish and over paint removed and then have it touched up and re-varnished.The result was truly exceptional, the painting has been transformed, its bright and as fresh as the day it was painted. I received good advice regards the restoration and the work required. The price I paid was very reasonable for the quality of work I received. I would strongly recommend Alan for this type of restoration work, well done

We took two, very dirty, early 20th century oil paintings of a highland scene to Alan to be restored. After treatment, it was as though the sun had come out and we saw previously invisible details. We were extremely pleased with the result and would highly recommend the Original Artwork store to others. The service was friendly, efficient and very professional. Many thanks from Jeanette Davis

Yesterday I collected a 19th century family portrait in oils, which Alan had cleaned and restored. He also replaced lost moulding on the frame and brought it back to its original splendour. I am delighted with the quality of Alan's work, which he completed within the time he had estimated. He also gave me some interesting background about the artist. The picture now glows as it hangs on the wall, and I am sure will be a treasured possession of the subject's great, great grandson, to whom the picture has been given.

I've just had two oil paintings repaired cleaned and framed by Alan,one 18th century one 19th century. Outstanding exceptional work professionally executed and presented. I would not hesitate to recommend this service to anyone.

Repaired water damaged John Opie oil on canvas. Stabilized, relined, touched up, cleaned. Frame improved but still age compatible. Superb work. A real craftsman. Would recommend without reservation.

I had an oil painting restored and re-framed by Alan at The Original Artwork Store. He did a fantastic job and was exceptionally helpful throughout the process, completely focused on what we wanted. I have no hesitation in recommending The Original Artwork Store to anyone!
