 Quality Art Panels

wpe6.jpg (37284 bytes)There are many companies that  make "canvas boards."   However, we merge high quality linens with several different mounting surfaces.  

We mount our fine linens on Gatorboard, Dibond, Multimedia, and Birch panels.   

The adhesive used for all linen is archival, strong and acts as a size.   All of our panels are custom made and in addition to the more common sizes, custom sizes are available upon request. Please contact us directly for price quotes. 

For more information on any of these mounting surfaces just click on the surface you are interested in knowing more about.

Variety Packs

Not sure what linen or priming is best for your style of painting?  Try one of our  variety packs.  A variety pack has one panel of seven different linens/primings that we offer.  (It usually contains one each of the L600, NL280, OG280, 350DP, 359, C13, & C15 in whatever size you order, all mounted on Gatorboard. However other linens may be substituted but it will have a variety of primings and linen weaves. )

Gatorboard

Gatorboard panels are a great choice for the artist. They are a lightweight man made wood-polystyrene product.  The panels do well in all types of weather. The standard panel is 3/16” thick.  Those sizes marked with an asterisk (*) are mounted on 3/8 " thick Gatorboard and 1/2" is used for larger custom sizes.wpe2.jpg (65393 bytes)  

The panels are moisture proof and handle all types of weather with ease. Whether you’re in rain, snow, or in the heat, the panels hold up quite well.  Our panels do not warp, wave, wrinkle or change when they go from one climate to another.

Multi-media  Board

For the artists that is going on long painting trips where thickness and weight are an issue, we offer linen mounted to multi-media board  (non-buckle board.)  This product is a blend of paper pulp and a thermal-set resin that is acid-free. It has a neutral pH and will not yellow or deteriorate. This art board is versatile enough to be used with nearly any type of medium. The board is only 1/32” thick, which makes it the panel of choice when traveling, since they are extremely lightweight and easy to pack. Multimedia panels can also be mounted on a backing board to accommodate framing. These panels are a custom item with sizes up to 16”x20”.

Dibond

For artists that want to put their work on one of the highest rated archival products, we are offering deluxe museum grade Dibond panels.  Dibond – is a sturdy archival aluminum composite material made of two lightweight sheets with a thermal plastic core. It is coated with polyester paint to prevent oxidation.  This panel line is conservator recommended.  Any of our linens can be mounted to the Dibond material.  They come in 2mm thickness for sizes through 24"x36". For larger panels, 3mm is recommended. Dibond-backed panels are considered custom panels, so please allow 2-3 weeks for manufacturing. We will make every effort to get your order to you sooner. While higher in price, Dibond panels are a great way for artists to preserve their fine works of art.
