The result of a collaborative effort between Ampersand and R&F Encaustics, Encausticbord features a ready-to-use surface that meets the unique demands of encaustic painting and mixed media.
 
Encausticbord's acid-free archival ground is highly absorbent and holds tight to layers of wax and collage without cracking or separating. It can be used with any combination of mediums to create incredible textures, colors, and patterns. The panel is mounted on Ampersand's 1/8" Hardbord, the finest pressed wood panel available. 
 
Made in the U.S. from quality hardwoods, Hardbord resists warping and moisture penetration.
