Ampersand Art Supply

read moreWhen you first try an Ampersand panel, you will soon discover that your color is more luminous and that you have more control over your brushwork and fine details. Ampersand's flawlessly prepared rigid surfaces allow painting from edge to edge, eliminating unsightly stretcher bar impressions or the "trampoline effect" of ordinary canvas. We invite you to discover an Ampersand panel that's right for you or learn more about the panels you're using now.

All of Ampersand's Museum Series panels are handcrafted in the US and are made with a solid core, highly dense, true artist hardboard that makes them less prone to warping than other panels. Tested to last over 200 years, only Ampersand seals their hardboard panels with patented Archiva-seal barrier technology. This provides a superior archival barrier between the wood substrate and the painting surface. Ampersand's acid-free signature painting surfaces inspire great art in every media from oils to watercolors.
