Bowl of Apples. 6x6, oil on panel
I was lucky and found some free hardwood, also known as Masonite. You can pick this up at Home Depot or Lowes. Its fairly cheap and makes an excellent support. Some people prefer the tooth of canvas, but I prefer the smooth surface of a hardwood panel. Whatever you choose to paint on, be it canvas, panel, or even paper, make sure you use plenty of good gesso!
