Product Description

3/4" Studio Depth Panels: 5 premium artist quality cradled birch wood paint pouring panel boards, 4" x 6" x 3/4" deep studio depth. Smooth birch surface panels with a premium unprimed finish that are ready to be primed or gessoed.
Alternative to Canvas: Provides a smooth, firm painting surface that won't stretch, flex, or bend like traditional canvases. There will be no warping because the panels have smooth sanded birch faces and solid wood cradles. Because no frames are required, it is simple to hang.
Panels are ideal for paint pouring and most art and craft projects because they can be used with a variety of mixed media, such as oil, acrylic, watercolor, tempera, encaustic, collage, decoupage, impasto, photos, and drawings.
Our panels come in a variety of sizes and depths, ranging from 4" x 4" to 24" x 36," with cradle depths of either 1-1/2" Gallery Panels or 3/4" Studio Panels. The number of panels in each package ranges from two to five. Professional artists and young aspiring artists alike use our panels to create one-of-a-kind works of art.
Buy with confidence, because if you're unhappy with these panels for any reason within one year of purchase, we'll refund or replace them.

Questions & Answers

Is it possible to stain these?

If you're wondering whether they should be sanded, I can tell you that they don't need to be for my purposes. I woodburn the subjects of my choice and then stain them in a variety of colors. I like the way it turned out. Perhaps someone else has a different vision for the final product (acrylic or water color, for example). Mine is one of my favorites, and I plan to use it again. When my current supply runs out, I'll place an order.

Is it possible to leave these as-is for vinyl/paint? Is it necessary to varnish them or not?

My painting went off without a hitch. Without the use of varnish, I believe they would hold permanent vinyl or even HTV well.

Is it possible to paint in the recessed area while using the surrounding wood as a frame, or only on the back?

Yes ! I purchased a primer, which I applied first to ensure that the paint dries quickly and does not soak into the wood.

Is this something that permanent vinyl would stick to?

You could try out a piece of wood before ordering because it's just plain wood.

This board has made me very happy! These proved to be an excellent foundation for my pour painting and epoxy combination
5/5

Unlike some of the other reviewers, I did not have any issues with damaged boards. I will definitely place another order.

Surfaces are amazing! Approximately 18"x24" in size
5/5

Painting with collage (and other media) on wood is one of my favorite things to do. After gessoing both sides to prevent warping, I am confident that these paintings will outlast anyone who gives a damn. I ordered more and was fortunate enough to receive newer ones that are 1 3/4" deep, which I much prefer. When I first ordered these, they were unavailable. In the future, I will definitely order more of these. They're great, even if they're not as deep.

This is fantastic
5/5

I bought five (20) of these in a pack. And they were all in excellent condition. squared to perfection Only one of the twenty could have used a little more sanding. However, everything else was fantastic!.

The quality is extremely poor
3/5

The quality is poor. One of the boards had a deep scratch that couldn't be sanded out, and the other two had a small raised area that looked like a nail head. That, too, I was unable to sand out. As a result, three of the boards were unavailable to me.

Panel boards are very nice
5/5

I had never painted on real wood panels before. They're appealing. (They'd probably be appealing even if I hadn't put MY artwork on them, LOL. ).
