How to make painting panels

In this video I show the simplest and easiest way I know to make great quality panels for oil painting.

Materials
. Birch or Maple Plywood (1/4 inch thick)
. Sandpaper
. Shellac
. Brush or sponge brush
. Acrylic Gesso
. Artist retouch varnish

Or if you want to buy panels this is a good brand of oil primed linen at a great price. Is this the best you can buy? No. But its great for the price and good to practice with. https://www.jerrysartarama.com/centurion-deluxe-oil-primed-linen-panels
Hi, I am the son of two artists and began painting in my hometown of Richmond, Virginia before I could walk. I was a rare combination of artist and athlete so I moved to Los Angeles in 2008 to play football for USC. I left the team my sophomore year to focus on painting and filmmaking, applying the same focus and discipline from my football career to my art. I primarily work in oils, and spend most free days painting "en plein air" around Los Angeles.
