Inpainting


Inpainting is as the word says, when you paint inside the affected area, filling up what was damaged. This is the true restoration process by which Larrazabal has already determined which type of materials the artist originally has used. Through thorough studies and unique techniques, he reproduces the original paint or paper that the artist used to be able to perform the inpainting technique. Here is where his mastering of techniques, knowledge of the composition of color and experience with materials make him the conservator.

The in-painting is applied only inside the areas that the pigment is missing. This is done to finalize the procedure and always respecting the original.

All the procedures are reversible. If there is a process that needs extra work or the desired procedure did not achieved what we wanted, this methodology can be changed at any of the stages.
