There can be poetry in any project; the image, the required work and the process of conservation. This painting of a few poor souls adrift, heavily damaged and worse for wear perfectly mirrors this moment in the studio where motivation is waning, the impetus to focus and dive into complicated projects just isn't there and a general malaise has settled. So how does one find a way to drum up energy and interest, how does one chart a course home... well, you'll just have to watch to find out.

"And I don't want any of you to fall asleep" excuse me, sir, the number of times I've rewatched the second conservation of anne to combat insomnia is between myself and youtubes data collection.
Wow this is so specific, are we the same person 😂
I have met my twin!

Julien explaining the chalk:
It makes me feel fancy
The chalk is to Julian as his videos are to us.
Hey man, sometimes…you just need to feel fancy. You already know.
Its Julian... like the calendar... He's not a French dairy farmer.
@@gr1mrea9er82 Do you know how that calendar is named in French ? That's right, le calendrier Julien, named after Julius Caesar, from which we got the 'modern' Julien, Julian [ as well as Jules, Juliette, julietta, Juliana, Julie and so on ].
Nitpicking over which orthography is correct is as pointless as bickering over steven, stefen, stephen, they're virtually indentical.
Greetings from William [ or Wilhelm, Guillaume ] the dairy farmer.
@@Soken50 well, it's not, because HIS name is JuliAn, not JuliEn. Just because they are similar and come from the same origin doesn't mean they are the same and interchangeable.
I want a video where Julian's son brings him a painting he did that got a hole in it and asks him to fix it. Then Julian goes through the entire professional process to conserve it as best he can.
🥺🥺 Now I do too.

Same! I cry inside every time he speeds things up or skips over parts. I wanna see it!
there is something very comforting about knowing that someone like julian needs to give himself challenges every now and again to maintain the "spark" in something that he loves. idk, maybe that tells you where i'm at in life, but knowing that he struggles, helps me in my struggles.
thank you for coming to my tedtalk.

While you were cleaning, it was like you were "finding the sun"! Incredible job Jullian.
I would also like to see him pretend to be a race car driver in the beautiful car of his, I’d also like to see him pretend to be a chef or alchemist while mixing his solvents!
@@lillysora I'd watch him pretend to be anything, like on Sesame Street, when Ernie sang, "Imagine That!"
The fact that filling a power washer and bringing the painting outside and going after it was brought up..sort of makes me feel you considered it Julian. Just saying.
Given how absolutely horrid some of the paintings looked before Julian cleaned them, you’d want to just not hunch over it and just start blasting. Also, try Power Washer Simulator.
Maybe that's how the painting got all those holes to begin with, but from one of those conservators who didn't know what they were doing.
He might have done that to "the contrarian"

Having a really tough time right now, I’ve been basically binge watching these to help me relax. After a week or so I have realized that this new habit of mine, which borders on meditation imo, has made me (unconsciously) take more time with things, slow down, and appreciate the small details of life. For this and many other reasons, I am so grateful for this channel!
Hi random stranger. I hope things are going better for you now.
@@Squishy1L thank you :)
same! really glad i walked in on my friend watching the brawler
Reading this made me happy. Good for you! It's always better to take time and do things consciously and stay in the present moment. Yay!!
I love the reveal after the painting has been cleaned - 'as was intended to be seen by the artist' It is always transformative. One thing I noticed, and perhaps it's my mind playing tricks, after cleaning I could see the HOPE on the young man's face as he lay on the raft.
the comment about not having feet to retouch brought a chuckle. For those long timers, I hope they caught it as well. Thanks for a new look at your work
Lol yeah. I chuckled as well... and had a flashback!
Oh I had a good hearty laugh lol
Or eyes, heaven forbid haha
Holdup I don't get it I must've missed a video because I've been watching for a while
Yes!
Before the varnish was removed it looked like men in a raft on the sand dunes
I don't know if I'm just oblivious, but I didn't even notice the ship in the distance until he cleaned it.

@@dinkledankle you must be fun at parties
Oil paint actually polymerizes into something very close to modern plastics. Linoleum was originally a mix of linseed and cork or other solids on canvas - basically just an oil painting with extra binder! If it can be used as flooring, you know it's tough stuff.

Bro, why do Julian's titles always make me feel like I'm preparing for a storybook adventure?
But he didn’t speed up the video. What we actually see is RoboJulian, which he created to be more efficient and move more quickly than a human can. Of course he can’t just reveal such an advance robot to the public yet.
If he can build that table for one painting, I wouldn’t put RoboJulian past him for the next scraping.

MOST UNDERRATED COMMENT ON HERE
I really love how your audience has to completely trust you about everything you're telling us. We can tell that the varnish goes away but don't exactly know how to tell that all the varnish is off, we don't know whether paint coming up is actually overpaint, sometimes it looks like paint is coming off with the varnish, and I have absolutely no clue how you manage to only get up the extra fill-in medium without taking all of it off. It's really cool that we can take your word for everything because you build that trust with us. I can't think of any other creators on CZcams who have that relationship with their viewers.
Thru !
I think at this stage I'd trust Julian to do surgery on me without question.
@@wonderwend1 an archival, fully reversible surgery. 😄
I think the only other creator like this (imo) is the locking picking lawyer
Honestly I’d trust him to keep my life savings safe
You probably cant think of any other creators that have that because there isnt really anyone else that makes content that would need that, like, i guess other types of restoration youtubers like My Mechanics dont talk, so they cant do it, gaming youtubers cant, documentary youtubers like Mustard are stating facts, i cant think of anyone who would be able to do that
*Julian:* Jeez, could you imagine spending months building a simple website?
My former boss literally died before completing the website for her bookstore. In the process, she drove many graphic designers up the wall
This should be a lesson to all of us. Also sorry for your loss.
…yes, because I’m atrocious at fighting with UIs to try to get the right font and colours.
11:15 "Now this painting is dirty. Very, very dirty."

Hey, that's a 10 yard penalty for TAUNTING!!! You're just a naughty little taunter, aren't you?
I find your lack of washi kozo disturbing. 😂 this was awesome!
I think this is my favorite painting. It really feels like a frozen moment in time. It makes you ask questions, it asks you to write the story in your head. Thanks for saving this one!
My mother teaching me embroidery 50 years ago ‘Make sure the back is as neat as the front’.
Me “ I’m part way ready to move on to conservation!”
As Julian works, I imagine Heaven, filled with the artists whose paintings he has conserved. I imagine Julian, one day, in the very distant future (after a long and joyful life lived) being greeted by those artists upon his arrival. To happy tears, firm handshakes, gentle pats on his back and good natured laughter - Julian hears a chorus of “Well done. Well done. Well done.”
I paint myself (i wouldn't ever hold myself up against the masters or anything, obvs) and I would absolutely adore it if I knew someone like Julian was taking care of my work in the future. Now, I don't think any of it is really worth enough to ever GET conserved (not many calls for a painting of a Suchomimus' head...) but if it were, I'd be happy to see it treated like this.
I will always be gobsmacked by the before and after removing the varnish
Anytime anyone matter of factly states that something is dirty, it makes me think of a Mitch Hedberg joke.
"This shirt is dry clean only, which means... it's dirty."
For real read this in his voice.
I love the idea of someone going "Cleaning this painting is taking too long. I'm gonna use a M O P ."
I always love seeing the gold-handled shears come out. I also like the fact that the pair has a scabbard.
He ought to do some merch We could always do with some Belgian linen in our lives

@@kimberly_erin may be cheaper to go to Belgium yourself and buy direct !
@@lynnedelacy2841 if I had enough money to go I would and then I’d make a deal so I could sell it here! I don’t have the money or resources to even start that. I can’t even afford the shipping on it!
the painting is actually BLUE?? Why am i always so surprised 😂
Me to. I mean you know it must be blue under there but when it appears it's always wonderful. The subtle shift in color to capture a roiling sea being uncovered made this video great.
The same reason the rest of us are surprised!
The art style of this painting is very "illustrated adventure stories for boys" circa 1940.
Yeah, wish Julian would tell us just a little bit more about this
this guy mostly restored worthless kitsch for the rich and clueless
just as well, I wouldn't want this incompetent hack anywhere near works of real value
@@DrWhom Maybe his methods are rougher than some museum but museums are generally just dumb? Like not wanting to remove varnish because they think it's "patina".
@@DrWhom I'm going to take a wild guess and say your knowledge of conservation is from youtube and maybe a college course,lol, and your experience...none. but go ahead and act like you know more than a second generation conservator who has been doing it for decades. I would expect nothing else from a youtube comment section
(Sorry if this sounds a little mean I didn't mean it to, I just thought it was amusing. I have a hard time getting the right tone when I write what I say)
@@DrWhom As an artist, I'd want my work treated like this. He restores things to what they're meant to be. I'd be thrilled to know my work was in his hands, that he'd put forth the effort to give it life again. Museums leave nasty yellowed varnish on as 'patina' when PAINTINGS ARE NOT MEANT TO HAVE THAT. If the artist had wanted it to be yellow, they would have painted it yellow.
Julian: "how does one chart a course home?"
Me: "I'm SO impressed with the "raft" of improvements you made to this filthy painting!"
i sea what you did there
It's nice to know that even Julian doesn't like to paint feet
YES!
_shudders_ feet… shoes… the worst
Feet are fine as long as I don't have to touch them and can use spray paint.
sometimes I just go and looks at the work of old masters or world renowned artists just to remind myself that nobody, in the history of art ever, has been able to paint feet. It makes me feel better.
Also the knowledge that feet are really weird. It doesn't matter the creature: badger, cat, birds, humans, - they always look weird.
I'm probably the only human alive who actually enjoys painting feet. Feet have all kinds of interesting shapes. If you start with a basic construction with a curved box it's not so bad. You just need to know how to turn that box around the place and remember, the bow has a curve because your foot (even flat feet, just to less of an extent) has an arch.
I’m gonna speed up the cleaning process so you don’t fall asleep.. -proceeds to play calm relaxing music that you can sleep too 🤷🏼♂️

Plot twist: the client needed the painting ASAP so Julian made the excuse for this video
Making the difficult seem simple, the mark of a true professional.
It always marvels me how some of the most soothing and precise art on the internet is filled with a community of chaos. I love it.
It's amazing to see such a wreck of a painting brought safely ashore after only a few days!
The colors and movement you revealed in this painting is astonishing!! Before it didn't look interesting, but now you can see the subtle and not so subtle nuances of this beautiful piece of art. Thank you for sharing.

It just never gets old watching old varnish dissappear and beauty re-emerge.
"Can you imagine spending MONTHS creating your website??"
*Stares into The Nothing as the PTSD is triggered*
I will never get tired of these restorations
It would be lovely to see reaction of the owners of various projects get their beloved pieces back
How beautiful the colours in the sea are on this one
In a video Q&A, Julian said he has tried to make it happen. But so far no owner has accepted the proposal, and so he has to respect their decision and their privacy. Hopefully one day.
Me too! Maybe just a quick report by Julian, paraphrasing the anonymous owner would suffice?
A person claiming to be the owner (Grew K) commented on Schooner Girl's comment to say that, "Well I got my notification that there was a new video and lo and behold there was my painting. I sat down and watched with the kids. It was absolutely emotional watching the varnish come off and the sea roar to life. I got the painting for the faces of the two Mariners. Even with the varnish and the terrible condition the canvas was in I had to have it. It just spoke to me. I am shocked and pretty darn excited!"
So based on that and their other comments in the thread they didn't know it was done yet. But Covid times aren't really the best to try filming reactions of owners, esp. if they're living well outside of Chicago.
Thanks water moon I saw that after I’d posted I guess that is a likely response for most people People acquire a piece of art that speaks to them and who wouldn’t be thrilled with the improvements
You’re the only person on this website that one makes me watch an advertisement just so I can continue listening to their voice and two you slip it in so smoothly that it takes me awhile to realize what you did because everyone else gets a fast forward.
Remarkable transformation... from a prairie picnic to an ocean drama with just a varnish removable. Wow.
Do you ever get clients that get their painting back and they don't think it's the same painting?🤣
Maybe that's why he videos them now!
@@DaleDix 🤣
He has links to commercial ‘knock ‘em out’ studios in China - not
Yes, he’s talked about it a few times!
He’s had them sent back for being “too clean” and had to add fake dirt 🤣 but he’d rather have the fake dirt layer on it than an actual dirty painting. Still it must be painful to do that after painstakingly restoring the art.
Wouldn’t you love to know the back story of these paintings? Someone loved the picture enough to purchase it, how did it lose the love so that it’s now in this condition? What caused the holes, tears and paint loss? I think it would be fascinating to know the how and why paintings such as this end up in
Julian’s studio.
possibly bought by someone who did care, eventually (possibly a few generations later) passed on to someone who didn't care, kept by people who didn't care for a while (again, possibly a few generations) until it is eventually passed on to someone who does care and brings it to Julian.
alternatively, the owners all did care but didn't notice the discoloring for such a long time because it happened gradually, eventually the painting was damaged in a move/during an accident/whatever and kept in storage for a while before someone remembered or rediscovered it and decided to bring it to Julian.
In short, people move and people die. Both of those factor into the care taken/given with art.
So I bought it from a person in NY who bought it from an estate sale. I loved it as I see it as a beautiful display of hope during a bleak moment. Everything is uncertain but they aren't alone.
I have no idea who the artist is, I've been told it was panted sometime in the 1800's and is "European New School". I still can't get over how beautifully they painted the ocean, something I had no clue about until after this restoration. I love that he made a video of it!
@@grewk2518 Nice to hear a little back story from the owner. Thanks for commenting 👍.
@@grewk2518 Good eye, and thank you.
I think this is my favourite painting that JB has conserved - I know nothing about art, so I'm so pleased to hear that this style has a name and an era that I can seek out. I just like how it looks, I dunno! So thank you for adding the context and for letting this art be shared with us all.
‘I don’t want my viewers to fall asleep’ I wake up hours later, my face has the imprint of my phone case, I don’t know what day it is.
I've seen enough of these vids to know that paintings were never meant to be sepia-toned relics of a bygone era, but I swear seeing them cleaned up gets me every time!
Art has brought me to tears, but this is the first time the cleaning of a painting has brought me to tears! What a beautiful painting it turned out to be!
The difference between the uncleaned and cleaned picture is like the difference between Monet's pictures before and after he had cataracts! Incredible!
Wow, the cleaned ocean looks so much scarier than before.
If you strip away the art from this content, you are still left with very deep and meaningful lessons about life. Thank you for that.
My favorite part of his videos is watching the cleaning and varnish removal process. It has a meditative quality to it.
You were talking about pretending to be a tailor. Whilst I'm in no way a seamstress, I do sew a lot, both modern and historical projects, and I just know that bolt of Belgian linnen fabric is *hella* expensive. Linnen is expensive in general, but that width, and that quality and that quantity, dear god that must've cost the equivalent of both my kidneys.
I was thinking this exact thing!
Kidneys and part of a liver
...and him cutting it with so much extra makes me cringe. I know he keeps the scraps for edging etc so that's ok.
I just wanna stroke it though
@@wonderwend1 Haha I get you, It's totally logical for him to cut it like that but my broke ass always needs to use up the last scrap of my fabric since it's so expensive and I don't want anything to go to waste
@@lynnedelacy2841 probably yes haha
Julian: Starts cleaning painting

Definitely a dirty painting.
Very dirty, it was a raft.
@@mircat28 top left corner is a small boat if you look close.
@@NavyVeteran1776 Thanks for this info! I actually was searching for it after somebody else mentioned there was a boat but couldn't find it.
I'm calling this "Adrift in a Sea of Molasses". Damn, that was dark!
*When you have something in common with the varnish…thick and dense* 👍🏼
The water looked like a mountain with green/yellow grass until the varnish came off. Seeing the whitecaps on the waves be revealed was pretty awesome. I’m usually most enamored by vibrant colors or the subject’s skin being revealed, but in this case simply seeing rough seas go from yellow/green to a pretty tame blue but a very bright white was super satisfying.
“I don’t want any of you to fall asleep”
*me, dozing off slowly*
But in a calm way, right? Like the whole world is happy and calm. Everyone needs to hear Julian's voice every night to sleep.
I love the form these have taken recently as long-form poetic video-essay. The videos themselves, are art.
Julian have more careful with these paintings than some people have with their lifes.
It depends on how long you are willing to drag a cinder block through your life or let it go.
Why didn’t you put holes in the keys and use your fishing line trick?
Disappointed!
What purpose did the keys have anyways? The canvas isn't stretchable because of the foil, right?
@@NR-EDIT true. But he has included them before so I was curious to see that he didn’t include them this time.
he had also i think forgot the isolation layer to see the colors in their bright form/sep his work from the artists
tired Julian is tired
Fishing line is typically for original keys, so that they don’t get lost. I reckon he didn’t include it because they’ve already been lost.
If I saw that painting at the flea market, I would not have stopped to even look at it. But it's a head turner now!

0:30 in and I can see lights through the canvas. My heart hurts already.
In the next episode: Julian does retouching on 2 paintings in the same time hunging upside down in a tank with sharks xD
LOL
The sharks help with their unending admiration of Julian’s skill in retouching an ocean that is soon so nice they are hoping the people in it will go for a swim to feed the painting sharks they can imagine under any bigger shadow. They drool a bit but wouldn’t touch Julian.
