FAQs

Are these boards suitable for beginners?

Yes, these boards are an excellent choice for artists of all levels, including beginners, due to their ease of use and consistent surface.

Can I use these boards for watercolors?

While these boards are designed for oil and acrylic, they can be used for watercolors, but you may need to apply a suitable gesso or primer first.

How do I clean my brushes after painting?

For oil paints, clean brushes with odorless mineral spirits. For acrylics, use soap and water.

How should I store finished artwork?

Store finished artwork flat, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to protect the paint and board.

Can I frame these boards?

Yes, these boards can be easily framed. Choose a frame that fits the board's dimensions.

What is the lifespan of these boards?

With proper care and storage, these boards can last for many years.

Are these boards archival quality?

The boards' longevity depends on storage and care, but their construction offers good archival properties.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well.

Ensure the board is clean and free of dust. Use a suitable primer if necessary, though the boards are already triple primed.

Board warping after painting.

Avoid applying excessive amounts of water-based paint, as this can affect the board's stability. Store the board flat.

Paint sinking into the canvas.

Ensure you are using the correct paint type. Apply multiple thin coats of paint instead of a single thick layer to avoid sinking. Consider using a medium to adjust the paint's consistency.

Pros and Cons

  • Ready to use immediately, saving preparation time.
  • Provides a consistent painting surface across the board.

  • Pulpboard backing offers stability and prevents warping.
  • Suitable for both oil and acrylic paints.

Cons

  • The board's rigidity may not suit all painting techniques that require flexibility.
  • The texture might feel different compared to unprimed canvas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These boards require no special setup. Simply unwrap and start painting. They are compatible with all oil and acrylic paints.

*Care Instructions:*

  1. Storage: Store the boards flat in a dry, room-temperature environment.
  2. Cleaning: Clean up wet paint immediately using the appropriate solvents (for oil) or soap and water (for acrylics). Allow the board to dry completely before storing.
