White Acid-free textured clay surface that absorbs watercolors like a fine paper Colors retain their purity and vibrancy on Aquabord in a way that even the finest watercolor papers cannot. This multimedia panel simulates the absorbency and texture of cold pressed paper but allows color to be lifted back to white easily while leaving the richest, most vibrant color possible. The surface is workable and can withstand color lifting and scrubbing even after the watercolor has dried. Glazes and transparent layers of color look amazing on Aquabord. It will not tear, shrink or buckle even under heavy water application. The Museum Series Aquabord is available in a 1/8" flat panel, or a 7/8", 1-1/2", or a 2" cradled panel. The 2" Deep Cradle eliminates the need for framing altogether. Stain, paint or wax the cradle edges and eliminate the cost of framing altogether!
