Wood panels have many advantages over canvas but I don't always have the time to make my own, so I've been purchasing them for years. The time I save can be spent on creating paintings rather than on preparation, plus the panels from Ampersand are better than what I can make.
All of the panels in this video were provided by @AmpersandArt The various panels that I mentioned in the video are listed below. #teamampersandart #gessobord #artpanel #aquabord

GESSOBORDS- these are the panels that I have been using for years. They're sealed and then primed with gesso. I use them for both acrylics and oils.
They have a variety of sizes and thicknesses on Amazon [ Ссылка ]
Blick also carries many sizes, here's a link to the product page [ Ссылка ]
AQUABORD- I like using these panels for oils, acrylics, and gouache. It's a panel that's coated with clay that's absorbent and it has textured surface. If you prefer and totally smooth surface then you want Claybord, see below.

ENCAUSTICBORD
These panels are engineered for use with encaustics so they're resistant to heat and the surface is absorbent. It works well with encaustics but it also can be used with other media such as acrylics, charcoal, collage etc.
