For ease of use, accessibility and affordability, many artists paint on acrylic boards or panels. They are made with either an imitation canvas surface texture or from canvas that has been laminated. These boards are available in a variety of standard sizes and texture. They are sometimes ideal for their portability because they are lightweight and less bulky. Fredrix is the most popular manufacturer of canvas panels.
