Brilliant when we get lots of input it sparks so many ideas. Guess what I have, reminded by your ideas? A 5 pack of canvas covered artist "panels" as opposed to wood framed canvases. Flat, super sturdy, 11"X14". We've been taking some Bob Ross classes and I bought these at a Michael's sale last year to practice on. They will be perfect and I'm excited, thank you all for your input! Stay tuned! Sharyn
