Pan Art Mix Media Canvas Panel | 12x16 Inch | 4mm | 1 Pc - Acrylic Art

One surface that takes paint, ink, collage and texture paste together. This Pan Art mix media canvas panel is 100% cotton canvas at 12x16 Inch (30.5x40.6cm), primed and bonded to a 4mm board, so heavy layers stay flat instead of buckling. The back label states a primed canvas weight of 350gsm.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size and thickness is this panel?
It is 12x16 Inch (30.5x40.6cm) on a 4mm board, one panel per pack.

How is it different from the Pan Art cotton canvas panel?
Both are 12x16 Inch cotton panels. This mix media panel is built for layering collage, ink and texture paste as well as paint, while the cotton canvas panel is set up for oil and acrylic painting alone.

Can I use texture paste and collage on it?
Yes. The 4mm board keeps the face flat under paste, glue and paper layers. Let each layer dry before adding the next.

Should I pick a canvas panel or a stretched canvas?
Pick a panel like this when you want a flat, rigid face that stores easily and frames behind glass. Pick a stretched canvas, which is cotton wrapped on a wooden frame, when you want to hang the piece without a frame.
