About me

Introduction I have decided on my hobby of restoration of digital images of fine art works, which I add to my Webshots wallpaper and screen-saver collection. This hobby was inspired by the RGB labs displays we now have in some of our branches at KCLS. This gives me something of the same effect, and helps me painlessly learn something about art and artists at the same time. Unfortunately, many paintings are in somewhat crummy condition and I find it interferes with my enjoyment of some pictures which I otherwise like very much. As a result, I have tried my hand at digital "restoration", and have become quite adept at it and I have wondered if there might be others interested in doing the same thing, and in perhaps sharing restored images. I have been working my way through the alphabet, and to date, I have a fairly extensive collection of artworks from artists beginning with Hans von Aachen and ending with Albert Bierstadt. Anyone been working backward from the z's? Sample before and after images to follow.
