Ampersand Art Supply Wood Gesso Artist Painting Panel: Primed Smooth, 11" x 14", 3/8" Flat Profile

These are great little panels. There’s a smooth surface texture. I use them for acrylic paints very nice application. Highly recommend

Love these Ampersand Primed Wood Artist Painting Panels and love the sale price as well!

Smooth, solid painting platform that is not flimsy, yet not heavy. Won’t bend or warp, I hope. Handles acrylics well.

I have used these panels before and like them for acrylic painting, but I was disappointed thatone end was dented and some of the white ground on which you could paint was coming off on one side. I still the panel but had to double-gesso the part with the missing surface paint. I think the panel should have been rejected as defective before they sent it to me.

What a pleasure to paint on a smooth but with what seems like it has an invisible porous layer because paint adheres nicely. I paint with acrylics for my first layer then wheb completely dry i use oils (never the other way around). I know these aren’t cheap but why go cheap on something you put your heart n soul into? Do it. Buy them. I’m not a salesperson just one who loves to paint on this surface.

Great quality

These are my favorite painting boards for acrylic painting. I always add another coat or two of gesso to them before I begin my painting to add a little more tooth to the surface. The surface as they come out of their wrapping with is very smooth and too slippery for my liking so I add the gesso to make a little rougher surface to grab my paint. They are thin but sturdy and are easy to put into a frame with framing points and are much better to transport than a stretched canvas because you don't have to worry about something poking a hole in your painting.

I bought 10 boards. First of all, when i opened the package, 3 of them were completely damaged (corners damaged, and even damages on the primed white surface). Also they came bended, not completely flat as they should. Since they are “flat” i had to glue some wood sticks on the back to give the board something to be hanged from; but the glue when cured, bended the surface even more, which obviously means that the surface is not strong and firm; its weak and bendable. Last but not least, i poured epoxy over them, but since the boards where uneven, bended and imperfect, i had to deal with a LOT o issues and the resin not curing perfect due to the imperfections on the edges of the boards and on the boards themselves. They are, BY FAR, the WORST BOARDS i have EVER bought, and will never buy them again nor recommend the product to anybody. If you are smart and are reading this review, DO NOT BUY THIS BOARDS. They are pure rubbish.

This is a good panel and high quality. but it seems that the biggest problem comes with shipping it. the are solid but very fragile on the corners. whenever i order them i am bound to get a chipped one. not only from amazon. they should label this as fragile or just protect the corners. also the bigger the size the more it is prone to warping. so storing them vertically/ diagonally will result in some warping.

As expected thank You for working through pandemics.

Sehr gut verarbeitete Ware und superschnelle Lieferung. Außerdemstimmt hier das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis.

I love these panels. I use them for acrylic paintings. Nothing wrong with the panels except sometimes the corners get damaged in shipping. Some protective covering over all 4 corners would be appreciated. My latest board came with the two bottom corners slightly damaged. These boards are expensive and I don’t always frame them. A cardboard corner protector and some bubble wrap should be used in shipping. They just come with a cling film over it and in a standard shipping plastic coated envelope, which is OK. But the board is heavier than ordinary cardboard and needs those corners covered while en route.

I would not buy again. The corners of the wood panel were chipped.
