Our take on the American Easel Cradled Wood Painting Panels 9 In X 12 In Pack Of 2

These are two 9 x 12 inch birch painting panels with a cradled back, made by American Easel. The 1.625-inch profile gives a gallery-wrap look, so finished work can hang without a frame. The cradled bracing keeps the surface flatter than thin canvas boards and resists warping better than stretched canvas. They suit acrylic and oil painters who want a rigid, ready-to-hang support, though the shallow depth limits very large or heavily textured pieces.

Questions and answers

Do these panels need priming?
Yes. The birch surface should be sealed with gesso before oil or thin acrylic, or the wood will absorb paint and show grain.
Can they hang without a frame?
Yes. The 1.625-inch cradled sides give a gallery-wrap look, so the panel can hang as is.
What media work best on them?
Acrylic and oil are the best fit. Heavy watercolor or very wet media can warp the wood if it is not sealed.
How do they compare with stretched canvas?
They are stiffer and less prone to denting or sagging, but heavier and less forgiving of very wet paint.
What is in the pack?
Two 9 x 12 inch cradled birch panels, each 1.625 inches deep.
Where is the American Easel Cradled Wood Painting Panels 9 In X 12 In Pack Of 2 cheapest?
