For centuries artists have painted on wood panels and because of the durability of wood, their works have withstood the test of time. Today’s lumber technologies have created advanced wood composites that provide an economical, durable, and versatile surface for creating art. One of those products, medium density fiberboard (MDF), is designed to be painted upon. The composite surface is created to form a unique structural bond to the coating being applied. The 3D Art Panels supplied by Art Panels & Frames uses the highest quality MDF available on the market today. Advanced acrylic and waterproof glues are used to fabricate a clear heart radiata pine cradle to which the 1/8" thick MDF panel is bonded. The perfectly mitered cradle corners are mechanically joined with a plastic fastener eliminating nails and fillers. Each 3D panel is individually hand crafted and carefully finished and inspected. Our process provides one of the finest, most durable and unique painting surfaces available for today's artists. Panels are available in standard and custom sizes and are manufactured in a shallow 1" thick panel suitable for framing or in a 1-5/8" thickness for a gallery wrap appearance. Each panel comes complete with hanging hardware and is sealed on the underside to provide a clean professional appearance to your work. |
