Subject: Inpainting
Has anyone experience with inpainting areas of loss on a painting that must be viewed--by the intention of the artist--under both natural and UV light? The painting was done in 1948. The artist was experimenting with some sort of fluorescent or phosphorescent medium at the time. The painting does not glow-in-the-dark after being exposed to natural light, but it does linger when exposed to UV light for a very short time. Under natural light the painting appears a monotone orange. When viewed under UV light, a full brilliant spectrum of colors emerges. What sort of paint or medium would solve this complication.
