In one embodiment, watercolor, drawing or conservation paper is embedded as a face sheet in an adhesive on a sandwich laminate including a honeycomb core. The resulting art surface provides watercoloring, drawing, painting, screen printing or conservation surfaces of unprecedented stability. This permits one to paint, draw on screen print on relatively thin sheets of art paper without limiting the sheet in size. As conversation board the surface with its stable and rigid construction may be used for mounting original art including photographs. The art surface of the invention may also be used in the construction of a maquette. | |
