@conservators "I spent 2 years in an undergrad research lab studying marine ecology. I viewed transect samples under the microscope for hours sorting invertebrate specimens. That experience prepared me well for the meticulously detailed work I now perform as a conservator."—KT #AskAConservator

@lunder That's advice you know we agree with! A final question from us: conservation looks like it requires a steady hand—do you train or do anything to prepare for the physical aspects of the job? #AskAConservator

@lunder Inpainting is awesome! (Personally, I love looking at the palette and the subtle variations in shade being used as the conservator searches for the perfect match.) What would you say is your top piece of advice regarding preservation? #AskAConservator

@lunder @UD_ArtCons @americanart It's a huge undertaking just to stay current in the field, we agree! Obviously, the day-to-day work of conservation is constantly changing, but do you have a favorite "routine" task? Or favorite part of your job? #AskAConservator

@conservators @UD_ArtCons @americanart “Our preventive care & treatment approaches are always evolving. Certain materials become obsolete over time, & simultaneously, new technologies are appearing on the market. Throughout our careers, conservators must remain flexible & adapt to these changes.”—KT #AskAConservator

@lunder @UD_ArtCons @americanart This is a huge amount of professional experience for someone who is still considered "emerging" in the field! Knowing what you know now, what do you wish people knew about conservation and preservation? #AskAConservator

@lunder What a way to be introduced to the field! (Though we hope you got to see the Hall of Mirrors eventually!) This is the event that started it all, but tell us more about your path to becoming a conservator. How did you join the field? #AskAConservator
