I recently ordered some UArt Boards for my pastels and I am totally pleased. I have been ordering and using UArt for awhile, but I had been adhering sheets, myself, to a backing before painting. With the boards, lightweight yet very firm, I no longer need that preparation step and I can just get right into painting!

"Quality Convenience"
I love the UArt Dark 500 grit 8 ply boards. They are great for demos and virtual teaching. I just place one on my easel and start to paint. They respond well to pastel sticks, pastel pencils, and PanPastel®. When it's time to frame, I just tape a piece of UV glass on top of the painting, using artist tape on the edges and slide it into a frame. No stress. Paintings on this quality surface travel well too.
