CLAYBORD 1.5 INCH CRADLED 9X12

Ampersand Claybord

Museum Series Claybord is made using 1/8" true artist hardboard and features Ampersand's simply amazing kaolin clay ground formula similar in paint-ability to the clay gesso grounds used during the Renaissance. The surface is sanded to an ULTRA-smooth, highly absorbent finish so your paint colors 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 favorite of both fine and graphic artists. Only Ampersand builds their cradles by hand with premium grade 13-ply birch plywood for maximum stability and a clean, finished look from edge to edge. Cradles can easily be painted or stained to complement the artwork or primed with gesso to wrap the image around the edges. Choose from 1/8" (Flat), 3/4", 1.5" and 2" Deep, all made in the USA.
