It only took Alicia three days to piece the shattered painting back together. The thing was so fragmented that the whole process gave her a headache. Once she had it reassembled, she dove into the restoration. After tackling a whole bunch of obstacles, she finally managed to fix the painting without leaving a trace. When she finished, she was pretty proud of the landscape.
This was a masterpiece. The whole painting, whether it was the foreground or the background, was brought onto the same plane. This not only set it apart from traditional techniques, but also left room for more expression, emphasizing the sharpness and solidity of the objects within the painting.
With the painting restored, Alicia's next step was to find a buyer. She called up Haley and asked, "Which auction house in Rockmountain is the most legit?"
Haley couldn't believe it, "You fixed that broken painting so fast?"
"Yep, you can't even see where it was damaged."
"Wow, you're incredible!" Haley gushed.
