Gessobord Professional Painting Panel for Oils and Acrylics
Ampersand Museum Series Gessobord is the top choice among professional artists for oil, acrylic, and mixed media work. Featuring a professional-quality acrylic gesso ground that won’t dull your colors, Gessobord offers a lightly sanded surface for outstanding paint adhesion, vibrant color, and smooth brush control. Built on a durable 1/8" True Artist Hardbord™ and sealed with Ampersand’s proprietary Archiva-Seal™, this acid-free and archival panel is ready to use straight out of the packaging—no priming required.
With 88% more gesso than typical panels and sustainable, VOC-free construction, Gessobord is perfect for everything from thin glazes and alla prima painting to palette knife work and impasto. The bright titanium white ground enhances every pigment, while the rigid construction makes it ideal for plein air or studio work. Cradled versions are hand-built using premium 13-ply birch for added stability and clean presentation.
