This panel board was lightly painted on. I am moving and it won't fit in my car. I sanded off the small image that I began painting and it has been gesso'd with golden paint. It is a high quality board. I bought it 4 years ago for $250.00 I will include the bucket of gesso that is 1/3 full. It is a great deal!! It MUST be picked up by this Thursday or Friday Here is the link to where I bought it. https://www.vancouveroncanvas.com/cart/products.php?action=details&pid=18092
