  • Providence-Fall River-Warwick, RI-MA (1888PressRelease) March 05, 2013 - Oil painting cleaning, restoration and repair are now part of the fine art conservation services offered by The Woodshed Gallery in Franklin MA.

    The in-house oil painting conservator is Bruce Wood, who has been repairing and cleaning oil and acrylic paintings privately for over twenty-five years. He has fine art degrees from Massachusetts College of Art (BFA) and The School of the Art Institute of Chicago (MFA). After graduating, he worked at the Art Institute of Chicago, a major museum, where he became acquainted with several conservation techniques.

    For ten years Bruce Wood operated his own photo retouching studio in Chicago, where his accounts included Keebler, Quaker Oats, McDonalds, Jim Beam, Coors and Helene Curtis.

    His entire family has been involved in the art business since The Woodshed Gallery was established by his parents James and Angelina Wood in 1968. The gallery features fine art conservation framing and conducts exhibitions of local artists' works.

    An oil painter himself, Bruce has studied antique painting techniques, and collected nineteenth and early twentieth century oil paintings. He has restored them and sold them at antique and fine art auctions across the country, including Christie's and Sotheby's auctioneers.

    As part of their service, The Woodshed is offering free in-home consultations in metro Boston, Eastern Massachusetts and Eastern Rhode Island, including Providence.

    Examples of oil painting cleaning and more details of the restoration services are available on a special website, http://www.CleanOilPainting.com
