I love the paper and the boards. The boards are kind of expensive, but they are totally worth it having them pre-mounted saves on framing, and provides a good surface to do the painting. 400 is my favorite.

Great product. Saves me time to have the Uart paper is mounted by you, but the corners are warped. I guess this is due to the application of heat during the mounting process. Perhaps it would be better for me to order Uart on 8-ply board. In this particular case, I will have to counter-mount a perfectly stiff board to the back.

I’ve used these boards for awhile now. They are a nice surface and are very sturdy

tried for first time. great product. it will be my go to from now on

One corner of the 5-pack was damaged/bent. Hopefully won't interfere with framing as doesn't like to lay flat. All 5 in pack this way. Looking forward to trying these out so was disappointed about this. Still usable though might have framing trouble. A packing/shipping issue-corners need to be better protected from box being tossed around during shipping. Box was not in pretty shape when it arrived. Everything else inside was fine.

Love these for pastel Plein Air. Not bad in the studio either -so easy to frame.

Easy and sturdy to paint on.

I received my order today (!) all the way from the other side of the country! Only took 3 days to get to my home. And it got even better....the wonderful wrapping of the products and the box container, etc. was amazingly well done! Only 3 thin products carefully wrapped and packaged for safe delivery. Only a small order...but it looked like a lot of care went into the order as if it was worth thousands. Want to congratulate everyone who was involved in its preparation. Well done! "Thank you so much." And, Yes! I like the sanded paper on boards! An appreciative new customer, Luda :)

Love the surface for plein air painting. The odd size created for the border to extend prevents from being popped into a standard frame.

I was searching for a stronger base instead of just using the Uart paper. These are very nice but pricey for someone who is still learning the techniques. Hope someday to get good enough to justify the cost.

I love these panels. Such a great UArt surface married to a sturdy board.

Haven't used this surface yet, but was carefully packaged and arrived without any problems. Excellent service!

I honestly don’t want to use anything else for my pastels. Great product at an affordable price. Thanks

The board is awfully thin. It's just stiff enough to be helpful. The price for the premium board is just too expensive. The 4 ply is expensive too for what it is. If the UArt regular paper didn't curl so much, I would probably stick with that.

Came in perfect condition, Thanks Dakota!

Very easy to work with, some of the softer pastels did not stick as well as paper with heavier grit. I will use again.

I have limited experience with these, as I am trying them to see if it makes pastel framing easier -i.e. no mounting afterward. I don't tend to Paint the whole area, so cutting them down is a challenge. I do like the paper border as I move my paintings around a lot while in progress and I don't smudge the work. They take watercolor underpainting well and resist bowing i use mainly size 16 x 20".

Uart paper on boards is my favorite surface to pastel on. Perfect surface and easy to pop into a frame.

Top 3 favorite sanded support for soft pastel!

I've been using Uart Paper 400 grit. Of course the paper is less expensive. So when I'm trying out something new, I'll use the paper for practice. When I am working towards a finished piece, I will use the mounted board. It is an off white or beige color. Much easier to use the board. No taping onto boards. Just put it on your easel and start !

Boards arrived with slightly mashed corner on each. Some of the boards were dirty on the back (where it doesn't matter, but still...)

Love working with UART 400

As always, my order from Dakota was processed and shipped in a timely manner.

Uart boards are my go-to surface when painting pet portraits. The fine grit is perfect for layering pastel.
