Today's Frequently Asked Question:

Question: I have a tear on a finished painting. I could paint over the damage, if only I could mend the tear. Is it possible to mend a torn canvas?

Answer: Mending a tear in a painting canvas is done by taking a clean piece of white cotton artist canvas. Cut it about one inch bigger than the tear. Then, use a high-quality glue for bonding fabric and glue the patch onto the back of the canvas. Lay something heavy on top of the patch to press it flat. When the bonded patch dries, lightly sand the torn area on the front. Next, fill in the area with gesso and lightly sand again.
