What we do
Founded in 2014 by Anton and his family, Artefex began because artists needed a stronger, longer-lasting surface than wood or stretched canvas. This short film shows our workshop and explains why aluminum composite panels preserve paintings for generations. Every panel ships with a materials log on the back so artists and collectors can track pigments, varnishes and dates. Watch to see how we hand finish each board to museum quality so your best work lasts for decades.

✨ Upcoming Workshop with Anna Rose Bain
The Portrait and Beyond
Dates: June 5–12, 2026
Location: Hotel Leone, Le Marche, Italy
Join Anna for a 7-day alla prima painting retreat focused on portraits from life, plein air sessions, and classical techniques infused with a modern edge. The week includes demonstrations, critiques, excursions, and hands-on guidance.
Why I use them: I love these panels because they always arrive in perfect condition (no bubbles or warping, which other commercially prepared linen panels sometimes have), and they are the perfect texture for my working style. I love that they are slick enough to push the paint around, but still have enough tooth to build up layers of paint fairly quickly. To be honest, I've never done a bad painting on one of these panels!

“We love it when our artists work on these panels.

The 8x8 Exhibition will be the second show that Abend has worked with Artefex on, and we are looking forward to more in the future.”
“It comes down to three things for me: Quality, convenience and customer service. It takes a lot of time to to prep myself, and their quality is impecable. Working with them is a joy! ”
“The choices an Artist makes regarding the supports they paint on have the greatest impact on the outcome for their painting over the years. Artists typically spend more time thinking about the paint they use then the support, but the opposite should be true.”
