Pastel Paintings

The nude has always been a classic in the arts, it was created as form of art by the Greeks in the V th century and it has suffered countless transformations since then. But it has never stopped captivating us, probably because in the nude we recognize ourselves as human beings.

These pastel paintings belong to a series of nine works called "House of life" and it was inspired by the Egyptian culture. Each of these pastel paintings represent the goddesses and natural forces of Egypt.

Framing your pastel paintings

This kind of artwork needs to be framed under non refletive glass, the glass prevents damage caused by moisture, dirt, insects, ultraviolet light and possible rubbings that would alter the integrity of the artwork.
The pastel paintings must be framed with a passpartou that will do of support. Hang your pastel paintings with an acid free tape in the top part of the passpartou, leaving the paper to hang freely inside the frame. If the artwork is too big add acid free tape on the bottom as well.
Do not attempt to clean your pastel paintings with a brush or water, you will only cause permanent damage to the painting.
With this simple care your painting is ready to be exhibited.
