Designed for professional artists, it supports oil, acrylic, and mixed media with a warp-resistant MDF core that ensures a flat, stable surface. Its reflective rigid panel enhances color vibrancy and detail precision, while fully primed edges and built-in hangers offer gallery-ready convenience straight from the studio. ## Description Ampersand Art Supply’s Primed Smooth Artist Panel is a professional, ready-to-paint acid-free gesso board designed for oil, acrylic, pouring, and mixed media. This painting surface features an ultra-smooth acrylic gesso that requires no sealing or preparation—giving artists a flawless ground for crisp brushwork, ultra-fine detail, portrait painting, plein air work, and the cleanest wipes. Because the rigid panel reflects light rather than absorbing it (like canvas or paper), colors appear brighter, more vivid, and more defined. The smooth, uniform surface supports a wide range of media, including acrylics, oils, gouache, casein, alcohol inks, graphite, airbrush, collage, image transfers, and photo mounting. Painters appreciate how evenly paint glides across the surface, while acrylic pour artists favor it for clean leveling without canvas texture interrupting the pour. Primed Smooth also serves as a versatile craft surface and wood canvas alternative for art classes, workshops, hobby painting, and studio use. Built with a durable, warp-resistant MDF (medium-density fiberboard) core, this painting board stays flat under heavy paint application, palette-knife work, and mixed-media layering. It offers a long-lasting alternative to stretched canvas, canvas boards, unprimed wood panels, and unfinished craft boards—ideal for artists who want a stable, rigid painting surface without texture, weave, or sagging. Primed Smooth is available in sizes from 4x4 through 18x24 and in multiple profiles, including 1/8"" flat, 3/8"" flat, 7/8"" cradled, and 1½"" cradled. The 3/8"" flat panel and all cradled profiles feature fully primed edges for wrapping artwork around the sides, while the 3/8"" flat format includes a built-in keyhole hanger for ready-to-display mounting. Cradled panels use solid wood pine supports for strength and a contemporary presentation. Whether you're creating fine art, acrylic pours, portraits, landscapes, or mixed-media work, Primed Smooth delivers consistent performance and a smooth gesso surface trusted by artists, educators, and hobbyists. It’s a dependable painting panel and canvas alternative suited for every studio, classroom, and art supply kit. ## Features - Ready-to-Paint Gesso Panel: Acid-free acrylic gesso creates a perfectly smooth, even painting surface—no sealing, sanding, or prep required. Ideal for crisp brushwork, clean wipes, fine detail, and artists who want a flawless ground straight out of the package. - Versatile for Oil, Acrylic & Mixed Media: Works beautifully with acrylics, oils, alcohol inks, gouache, casein, graphite, airbrush, collage, image transfers, photo mounting, and mixed media. Ideal for portraits and plein air, giving oil and acrylic painters exceptional control, ultra-fine detail, and the cleanest wipes. The smooth surface also makes it a favorite for acrylic pouring. - Greater Detail, Brighter Color: The ultra-smooth surface is naturally uniform for precise detail, clean pours, and controlled layering. And because rigid panels reflect light rather than absorbing it (like canvas surfaces), colors appear brighter, more vivid, and more defined. - Ready-to-Hang Details: Offered in 1/8" and 3/8" flat profiles as well as 7/8" and 1½" cradled depths. The 3/8" flat panel and all cradled profiles feature fully primed edges so artwork can wrap cleanly around the sides, while the 3/8" flat panel adds a built-in keyhole hanger for quick, ready-to-display mounting. - Warp-Resistant Wood Painting Panel: The MDF core stays flat and stable under heavy paint, palette-knife work, and mixed-media layering. A dependable alternative to canvas boards, canvas panels, and unfinished wood craft panels for professional art supplies. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00917DFEQ | | Best Sellers Rank | #9,259 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #41 in Canvas Boards & Panels | | Brand Name | Ampersand Art Supply | | Color | 7/8" Cradled Profile | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (710) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00707310791122 | | Included Components | one painting panel | | Item Dimensions L x W | 12"L x 12"W | | Item Type Name | Primed Smooth | | Item Weight | 1.3 pounds | | Manufacturer | Ampersand Art Supply | | Manufacturer Part Number | PWP751212 | | Material Type | Wood, Acrylic Gesso | | Model Number | PWP751212 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Paint Type | Acrylic | | Shape | rectangular prism | | Size | 12" x 12" | | UPC | 707310791122 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | Contact manufacturer for warranty information | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Ampersand Art Supply - **Color:** 7/8" Cradled Profile - **Item Weight:** 1.3 pounds - **Material:** Wood, Acrylic Gesso - **Product Dimensions:** 12"L x 12"W ## Images ![Ampersand Primed Smooth | 12x12 | 7/8" Cradled | Smooth Gesso Panel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71tUrISemVL.jpg) ![Ampersand Primed Smooth | 12x12 | 7/8" Cradled | Smooth Gesso Panel - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41bh4obmGdL.jpg) ![Ampersand Primed Smooth | 12x12 | 7/8" Cradled | Smooth Gesso Panel - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51sFH3RaPcL.jpg) ![Ampersand Primed Smooth | 12x12 | 7/8" Cradled | Smooth Gesso Panel - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51vft8fVafL.jpg) ![Ampersand Primed Smooth | 12x12 | 7/8" Cradled | Smooth Gesso Panel - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51YyxLx7oYL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Frequently Bought Together - Ampersand Art Supply Wood Gesso Artist Painting Panel: Primed Smooth, 12" x 12", 7/8" Cradled Profile - Winsor & Newton Artists' Oil Color, 37ml (1.25 oz) Tube, Quinacridone Magenta - Winsor & Newton Winton Oil Color, 200ml (6.75-oz) Tube, Titanium White --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kg/products/42320578-ampersand-primed-smooth-12x12-7-8-cradled-smooth-gesso-panel](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/42320578-ampersand-primed-smooth-12x12-7-8-cradled-smooth-gesso-panel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-09-13*
