The innovative Encausticbord surface is ready to use and requires no preparation. The bright and velvety ground is perfect not only for encaustics, but for mixed media applications including oil paints and sticks, collage, image transfer, incising and more, and the durable bond offered by the ground means that fantastic textures and thick layers can be built up on its outstandingly receptive surface. Encausticbord is available in various depths for multiple display options: 1/8" and 1/4" flat panels, 7/8" and 1 1/2" cradled panels, and 2 1/8" DEEP gallery cradled panels for maximum support.

Professionally Gessoed on our Famous AlumaComp (Aluminum) Panels - A High Quality Professional Panel for Oils & AcrylicsNew York Central® has taken the wildly popular AlumaComp brand artists aluminum panel and created a made-to-order gessoed surface for the fine artist who prefers primed panels! AlumaComp's unique composition of two aluminum sides with a 1/8" polyethylene core makes them lightweight, archival, dimensionally stable and strong. Panels will never rot and are not affected by weather humidity changes or temperature fluctuations, even in transport. The light weight and slim profile is ideal for shipping, stocking pochade boxes, plein air painting, and for studio use. Featuring a professional quality, proprietary acid-free and archival acrylic gesso, New York Central® Gesso AlumaComp Panels are meticulously hand primed by our own in-house, skilled craftsmen in our custom framing department when the order is placed. White is available with double or quadruple priming, and Rose Earth and Neutral Grey are offered double primed. Double primed panels have a slightly textured, consistent surface, making them ideal for all types of media. Quadruple primed white gesso finished panels offers a smoother, whiter appearance, making them perfect for any media where a smoother surface is desired.

Featuring complete color consistency from batch to batch, the tone can be depended on for easily seeing values when painting. Perfect for chiaroscuro techniques, landscapes, portraits, still life, and more. Please Note: The panels are made to order, so it may take longer to ship your panel.
