Pros
  • Allows for watercolor techniques on a unique surface with a deep cradle for easy hanging.
Cons
  • Requires careful handling and may crack if dropped or mishandled during the painting process.

Ampersand Deep Cradle Review

I have purchased this product several times and am delighted. I use it to create high quality shadows. The box is solid and well constructed, and the finish takes paint or stain very well (my preference).

Pros
  • Boards & Canvas
Cons
  • Expensive
