Choose this style if you prefer a clean, modern look.  Your portrait is painted on a Museum Series Ampersand Aquabord panel, which is an acid-free, textured clay surface that mimics a high quality watercolor paper. Handcrafted in the US, these 1.5″ panels are built with high density hardboard that are tested to last over 200 years. Every panel is protected by a proprietary Archiva-Seal barrier technology that prevents discoloration and makes Ampersand panels truly archival. The painting is sealed with a UV Varnish, so framing is not necessary and comes ready to hang with hardware included. Floater frames are optional and offered as a separate add-on service (Frame shown below).
