I have been following this guy for about a year now. He does painting restoration and repair and cleaning.
He has some very interesting stuff and is very good at what he does.
This is just a simple one, a cleaning to a smaller painting but the difference is amazing between the way the painting came and the finished product. Only 18 minutes.

I have been following Julian Baumgartner for quite a while. His work is amazing.

Amazing with the right skills and know-how what can be done to unearth a painting from layers of dirt and nicotine to reveal the original subject. Perhaps not the enigmatic Mona Lisa, but nevertheless a very attractive lady who deserves her long-awaited restoration; I can only wonder who she was. Thanks for the post, I am well and truly hooked.

He is very subtle funny guy. He grew up working with his father doing this and then got the company.
A lot of his early stuff are just short things with no or little talking. He has some videos close to a hour and and you'd swear it was only a few minutes since you started watching.
I subscribed so I know when he's put out a new video.
