In woodworking and the decorative art s, refinishing refers to the act of repairing or reapplying the wood finishing on an object. In practice, this may apply to the paint or wood finish top coat, lacquer or varnish . The artisan or restorer is traditionally aiming for an improved or restored and renewed finish. Refinishing can apply to a variety of surfaces and materials such as wood , glass , metal , plastic and paint , although in Britain, when referring to wood or wooden furniture it is commonly known as repolishing. There are a great variety of both traditional and modern finishes, including the use of Faux painting faux finishes. One interesting modern development in refinishing is the art of distressing or antiquing, making the finishes of pieces look older. While refinishing is often undertaken to salvage an old piece of furniture, in the case of antique furniture refinishing has been known to significantly reduce the overall value of the piece.

Fran ois Vaillancourt born 1967 is a Montreal based Canadian painter. Fran ois Vaillancourt has a formal training in fine art s and graphic design . After 15 years working as an art director in various Advertising agency advertising agencies , he started painting again. His work plays upon the contrast between very fluid backgrounds and central images which are hyper realistic using a technique that deliberately mixes raw and refined. Each painting bears witness to the fact that time leaves its mark on objects with patina and deformity indelibly defining an ephemeral moment. His approach cannot be defined or confined by material. Instead it has been chosen solely as the best means to a beautiful end. His work, mostly acrylic and ink on canvas, has been featured on book covers and was the subject of two shows, one in Montreal and the other in Quebec city.
