How to Care for Handmade Oil Paintings
Basic care guidance for handmade oil paintings, textured knife paintings, framed works, and long-term interior display.
Display conditions
Avoid direct strong sunlight, high humidity, and locations exposed to kitchen smoke or heavy dust. Stable indoor environments are best.
Cleaning and handling
Use a soft dry cloth or gentle brush for dust. Do not use water, alcohol, household cleaners, or abrasive material on the painting surface.
Transport and storage
Large works should be protected with proper packaging. For international delivery or long-term storage, discuss framing, rolling, and crate options with the studio.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can textured oil paintings be framed?
Yes. Framing can protect the work and improve presentation depending on the interior style.
Can I touch the textured surface?
Avoid touching the paint surface directly, especially textured areas, to protect pigment and finish.
