Ampersand Gessobord | 9x12 | 1/8" Flat | Oil & Acrylic Painting Panel

Gessobord is a pre-primed, truly archival painting panel for artists who demand professional quality. A superior alternative to stretched canvas, canvas art panels, and paint canvas, each board is built with a warp-resistant hardboard core and sealed with our proprietary Archiva-Seal. The surface is coated with professional artists’ grade, acid-free acrylic gesso, creating a semi-smooth ground that delivers vibrant color, crisp brushstrokes, and fine detail. Strong enough for palette knife techniques, heavy layers, and mixed media, Ampersand Gessobord is a professional-grade painting surface trusted by artists, educators, and hobbyists who need dependable art supplies for adults and versatile painting kit essentials. Built with a rigid Hardbord core, it serves as a superior blank canvas alternative that resists warping and delivers museum-quality results. Each panel is finished with acid-free acrylic gesso for a smooth painting ground that supports acrylic paint, oil paint, paint markers for canvas, charcoal, pencils, colored pencils, and more. Artists rely on it for everything from fine detail to heavy texture paste for canvas, giving them the freedom to experiment with painting, drawing & art supplies in one durable panel. Available in sizes such as 5x7, 8x10, 9x12, 11x14, 12x16, 16x20, 18x24, and even 24x36, full size range up to 48x72. Gessobord adapts to both mini canvases for painting and large blank canvas projects. Our cradle depths include 1/8"", 3/4"", 1.5"" and 2"". Whether used for professional commissions, art therapy, or creative hobbies, it’s equally suited for wall decor, art projects, or paint party supplies. Perfect for sip and paint party supplies or casual DIY crafts, these panels provide a stable surface where colors remain vibrant and brushstrokes sharp. In addition to fine art, Gessobord is excellent for crafting, wooden crafts, and projects using unfinished wood, wood plaque bases, wood boards, or wood craft supplies.
