Review on 🎨 High-Quality American Easel 14x14x1 5/8 Cradled Painting Panel for Artists by Kelly Caballes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Always quality workmanship

I honestly love it. Love. LOVE. LOVE. Wood panels are my favorite substrate. I don't like it when the canvas sags. Not a fan of the "canvas" texture that canvas has. (Who knew it would be like this?!) It's just not a substrate for me. But firewood? Flat, straight, well sanded, cradle wood? Wahoo! Bring media, colors, 3D decorations and anything I can find to add! Wood, like this object, can take all of this without sagging or otherwise warping. Or draw something without adding heavy/bulky things. The finished product looks better. done better. The tree won't let you down. Need to redesign an area? That's a TREE - let's go! You don't have to be gentle like with Mumby Pumby Canvas. (Of course this is my first time using *that* term!) American Easel is one of my favorite brands. They make serious workhorses! Wide range of sizes, stable quality, fast delivery. Your Skywood panels meet all my requirements. I created part 653 on these panels and they have never let me down. Never! I know exactly what to expect from them. No division. No sag. (Did I mention I don't like sagging? Pants or linens, I'm not a fan.) No problem. I love good workmanship - and American Easel made it! (Ha ha, okay? Wood. Nail. Never mind. I definitely need more coffee.)
