“Maestro SYSPHERE has been conserving and restoring fine art paintings across all schools of art and genres masterfully, paintings by artists from the pantheon of permanent collections of the great museums, such as Rembrandt, Caravaggio, Dali, Picasso, Miro, Warhol Neiman, Theodore Rousseau, Daubigny, Díaz, Richet, Troyon, Jules Dupré, Japy, Bonheur, Delpy, Damoye, Harpignies, Morisot just to name a few. He brought life back to damaged paintings with his superb touch into immaculate condition. Sy is an excellent adviser and problem solver; he resorted to numerous paintings beyond our expectations. I am delighted with his work and have used his services over many years.”
(Jean Audigier, Ph.D.)
“I found Sysphere Conservation through a web search and I am very fortunate for connecting with Sy. He did a brilliant job of fully restoring this painting; the deep scratch was removed, the canvas stretch line was eliminated and the entire painting was properly cleaned. Once done, Sy helped me select a new frame from Bernzweig Framing & Design.”
(Brock de Lappe)
“The painting looks bright and the colors are richer and clearer than before the restoration. Thanks Sy, for fixing the damage and bringing my painting back to life!”
(Sarah Tateishi)
“He subsequently showed me photos of the repair process and when I picked it up, it was perfect. Then he wrapped it delicately in bubble wrap to protect it on my ride home. Go to no one else for your art restoration. Go to SYSPHERE! What a lovely person to boot!”
(Laura Zander)
“His painstaking repair work made the item as good as new. I really appreciate the high quality of Sy’s work and heartily and unreservedly recommend him.” (Thomas Shawyer)
“We had the pleasure of working with Sy several years ago when he repaired and restored a severely damaged painting. This is a beautiful painting of a flamenco dancer by Giralda that my daughter painted in Sevilla, Spain. The painting had been shipped to San Francisco. In passing through customs, it had been cut in several places with a box cutter, creating cuts of about 5-6 inches. Sy restored the painting perfectly. As an artist himself, his sensitivity to color is unparalleled. It is as good as the day it was painted. Thank you, Sy. You are a genius and a pleasure to work with. All the best for your business.”
(Patricia Ter Heun)
“Sy cleaned and touched up a large 48 x 55 inch, late 18th century, old master oil on canvas, retouched and in-painted in the style of Georges Le Toure for me. He did a wonderful job of minimizing both the compositional and aging flaws of the piece. He restored a very marginal piece to a collector’s gem.”
(Dr. K. Villard, Art Collector.)
“I had a great experience with Sy. Sy did a thorough job of inspecting the various areas of damage and methodically cleaning and repairing the affected areas and was a real pleasure the whole time. All in all a great experience with a great end result.”
(Ariel Garza)
“Sy is an art historian and a consummate artist himself. He generously shared some of his own paintings/drawings with me and they are quite special. He has such a wonderful eye for composition, imagery, color, and detail — it’s no wonder that he was able to bring my lithograph back to life so beautifully. I highly recommend Sysphere to anyone needing art restoration or conservation.” (Ken Sonkin)
