## Description

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. Each panel reflects Ampersand’s commitment to high-quality painting supplies that artists can trust for generations. Handcrafted in the US, Gessobord is trusted worldwide by artists, educators, and creators seeking premium art supplies for adults.

Try Aquabord for watercolor, gouache, wet media, Claybord for smooth, detailed work with alcohol inks, airbrush, or egg tempera, Pastelbord for oil pastels, soft pastels, or Encausticbord for encaustic painting, mixed media, charcoal, colored pencils, and graphite. Panels and canvas are compatible with Ampersand frames. Each Museum Series panel is expertly made and hand-finished in Buda, Texas, reflecting our commitment to museum-quality standards and artist-first innovation.

Review: Excellent - A quality product for my latest painting. I love these boards!
Review: Awesome surface for oil painting - These panels are ideal for detailed paintings in oil paint and oil pastels. The surface is smooth and has just enough tooth for oil paint to glide on. The hardboard backing is tough and durable. The colors come out vibrant I get a perfect finished look with these boards. These can easily handle palette knife paintings with lots of thick paint. I prefer these boards to canvases and they are easy to frame.

## Features

- Archival-Quality Surface – Our Museum Series panels feature Archiva-Seal, preventing Support Induced Discoloration (SID). Finished with acid-free acrylic gesso for lasting oil and acrylic paint results. The Archiva-Seal is applied pre-gesso for a perfectly primed wood panel canvas.
- Ideal for Oil and Acrylic Paints – Excellent for mixed media, casein, graphic markers, collage, paint pour, image transfers, oil paint. The semi-smooth, professional gesso finish is perfect for detail painters, portrait artists, and illustrators who need crisp brushstrokes and precise control. Strong enough for palette knives and heavy layering, yet refined for brittle media. This archival panel offers lasting, durable and reliable surface for fine art, art class supplies, workshops, painting kit, arts and crafts, and art supplies for adults.
- Premium Hardbord Core – Crafted on Ampersand’s FSC-certified, high-density hard board, engineered to resist warping and damage. Stronger and more durable than stretched canvas, canvas panels, Masonite, MDF, art paper, or unfinished wood canvas boards. Hardbord provides the rigid foundation that makes Gessobord a reliable choice for professional painting supplies, giving artists confidence that their work will remain stable, flat, and archival for generations.
- Better Than Canvas – Unlike stretched canvas, mini canvas, canvas panels, or canvas boards for painting, our hard wood panel won’t sag, stretch, or show distracting weave texture. The ultra-smooth surface and precise edges allow artwork to extend cleanly from edge to edge, without fabric folds or corner wraps. Colors stay vibrant, brushstrokes crisp, and fine detail sharp, giving artists superior painting control for both fine art and any craft hobby project.
- Crafted in the USA – For over 30 years, Ampersand has set the standard in handcrafted painting panels and professional art supplies. Trusted by museum conservators, professional artists, educators, and hobbyists across America and worldwide, our archival-quality wood panels deliver unmatched durability and fine art performance.
