Ampersand Claybord Panel 3mm

Museum Series Claybord from Ampersand is a unique, specially prepared working surface perfect for use with creative materials. It is made using high quality artist hardboard and features Ampersand's simply amazing kaolin clay ground formula similar which performs similar to the clay gesso grounds used during the Renaissance period

The surface is sanded to an ULTRA-smooth, highly absorbent finish so your paint colours remain true and brilliant. Work the surface by thinly applying paint or ink, then remove it, reapply it, even scratch through it to add contrast, texture and fine details. Claybord is a favourite of both fine and graphic artists.

With Claybord, paints and inks can be manipulated to vary tonal value, create detail and to develop highlights and correct mistakes. Various artist tools can be used such as Ampersand scratchboard tools, hobby knives, razor blades, etching tools, sand paper, oil-free steel wool, and electric erasers.
