Questions & Answers
There was only one piece available when I bought it, and that's exactly what I got.
I'm not sure why it's depicted as a three-pack when it's only one panel.
The board is extremely light in weight. It works great for me on a glass drafting table.
I believe they will be able to. I marked where I needed to cut the board to the size I needed with a regular pencil, and the pencil left a mark on the board.

It's perfect! My medium is Inktense, and I'm not afraid to use water, so there's always the risk of the board warping, but not this time. I've used it for two photos and it's exactly what I was looking for. In addition, watercolor tape (the sticking kind, not the wet kind) adheres well to this. I use thick watercolor paper, so I don't stretch it; instead, I tape it all the way around the edges to the board, and the tape sticks to the board and the board absorbs the water, even when I've really wetted the paper with a series of washes. It's also a lot lighter than my previous board.
When one thinks of a hardboard panel, like the one I bought, one usually thinks of a nearly two-foot-long piece of material. This product is more than just a three-dimensional plane of compressed wood particles. br>br>Even if it weren't for the fact that it's a three-dimensional object, it's still a three-dimensional object. This panel is dimensional and thick, far exceeding any expectations one might have for a piece of wood. It's smooth on one side and lightly textured on the other! Perfect for keeping Gorilla Tape in place without slipping! br>br>The famous words of this country's 19th President, Rutherford B. Hayes, come to mind. "An amazing invention," said Hayes. Who, on the other hand, would want to use such a device? " Of course, this august former leader was referring to the telephone, but his sentiments are equally applicable to a manufactured wood-based product. compressed cellulose cellulose cellulose cellulose cellulose cellulose cellulose cellulose cellulose cellulose br>br>And in response to President Hayes' question, I rise to say, "I wood.

For each painting, I now have a few. When compared to buying the arches watercolor blocks, this method is far more dependable (in my opinion) and cost-effective. I use regular masking tape after applying a wet wash to the trimmed paper and allowing it to dry naturally (no heat), and I've had great results with this board. I'm thinking about using them to mount a painting (with the glue, not tape). Stores flat on shelves with ease; lovely! ♥️.
I'll use it to stretch my watercolor paper on, and then I'll use it as the background for the rest of my painting. You will not be disappointed with your purchase.
This board serves its purpose on my easel as a board to tack paper to, but it's also surprisingly flexible. I was expecting something more rigid based on the description, but this bends into a curve under its own weight.
The board is 24" x 36" in size. I'd be a little more disappointed if I wasn't using it to simply stretch and hold my paintings in place while I worked. I am a adaptable individual who can work with whatever resources are available. I am, however, completely honest. Unlike other hardboard panels I've bought in the past, this one is flimsy, and one end has several greasy, visible fingerprints. A corner of the board was partially chipped off, and part of one edge had been squished.
Again, I can make do with this, because it will be covered 99% of the time with taped-on taped-on taped-on taped- Printed on watercolor paper I don't think the price for a messed-up car should have been so high. However, now that I have it, I can start working on some larger pieces.
I expected it to be more durable, but I was surprised by how much the 14"x18" bows when not laid flat. It's not ideal for holding while sketching.
One of the Masonite floor boards was broken when our toddler jumped around in his pack and play. This art board was the perfect size to take its place. It's missing a star because it's thinner than I'm used to. It's not a problem if you want to use it for art.
