Hi,
I have just purchased an oil painting signed by Brian Roche. It is a beautiful scene of a lighthouse on a cliff. The frame is just georgeous with a charcoal/teak color with the inner frame of a tan material which suggests it is older. I am also curious to know more about the artist. Anyone?
Thanks,
LDeLuca
Mill scale must be removed prior to painting because any breach in the mill scale will cause moisture to get beneath it, causing it to flake off. If there is paint on top of it, and moisture gets below the paint and the scale, both will peel and flake off because the paint is adhering to the mill scale, not the underlying metal surface. Paint should always be applied only over a clean, sound surface.

Most paint grade mill-work (mouldings, widow frames and doors) are not designed to be stained. They are created of many small pieces of woods, joined by something called a finger-joint. The wood-grains of the pieces, are not necessarily pretty to look at. For the best looking finish, it is best to prime and top coat paint grade mill-work. If you really want wooden mill-work, spend the extra and get good stain-grade mill-work.
In June 2008 one of his many paintings of the Water Lily Pond, painted in 1919, was sold for £ 41 mill ($ 80 mill)
The first recorded paint mill in America was established in Boston in 1700 by Thomas Child, who had emigrated from England.
go through the mill. there should be paint on the walls that say "The Steelyard."
Someone could purchase a painting of a windmill from Windmill Paintings Incorporated, The Artistic Connection, eBay, and Fine Art America. Prices will vary depending on the size, and style of frame the painting is in.
