oil panting conservation

[Kelena]

I would never bring anything precious to Hawaii, whether it be photographs or paintings. Part of the move for me was leaving old things behind rather than surrounding myself with them. Bring kitchen utensils, old Christmas ornaments. You will find art here that you like more. Act like you have died and, after a year, start giving old things away. Why wait until you are dead and make others sort through all your stuff? Get rid of your stuff.

The only things I regret not bringing over is my piano, and I am not so sure it would have been happy.
