I couldn't wait to open my panel order when it arrived...
I opened it just now and took out 2 panels and they are incredible!
What a beautiful woodworking job!

Most people will say that Rodney's panels are too beautiful to paint on.  This is true.  Ultimately, we do paint on them. But the thing for me, that really makes Rodney a great panel maker and person to do business with, is that he will really hang in there with you to make sure that you get what you want.  As a businessperson, he has great integrity.  And he is kind.

Rodney, They are beautiful!  I am really impressed.  I am almost afraid of painting on them...like will, what I do to them, be worthy of what you have made. 
It feels so good to have them.  It's like having a strong foundation on which to stand.
Thank you!

If everyone I dealt with in life (friends, coworkers, vendors) were as conscientious and sincere as you, my life would be very sweet all the time!

Rodney, Just opened the box with the panels inside and the are beautiful!

---Charles Ivey, Memphis, TN
...from Charles Ivey's website:

" The panels are created by a master craftsman who uses furniture grade plywood in their construction.  Charles believes that using this high-grade structure enables the finished piece of art to achieve an even higher level of quality. "

Rodney, the panels are magnificent! Lovely work. I will be ordering many more over time.

After years of warped panels, splinters, and shoddy edge work, finding Rodney Thompson and his panels has been a dream.  Not only are the panels pristine in every way, but Rodney, an artist himself, knows how to work with artists to help them realize their visions for their creative projects.  When I wanted to create larger encaustic paintings, Rodney reassured me that his panels could support the larger format safely and helped me brainstorm ways to work in a modular fashion.  When I started writing my book, Encaustic & Beyond: A Guide To Creating Fine Art With Wax, Rodney was my go-to guy for everything from panels to crates to framing solutions, in addition to being a featured artist in the book.  The book is all the richer for his expertise.

The panels are GORGEOUS and I can't imagine ever making my own now!

The panels arrived and were perfect.  A few of my students are interested and may contact you. I had some of the panels at the college and they were in awe.  You do fantastic work.
---Deborah Barr, Atwater, CA

---Frances Pico, San Juan, Puerto Rico

 

I received the panel yesterday and it is amazing! I only hope my painting will do it justice! ...thank you again for your excellent work.
---Kevin Frank, Brooklyn, NY

The panels that Rodney makes for me have helped me get to a higher level. I don't have to worry about my substrate, because it is perfect.
They are a joy to work on. He really knows his craft.
---Roberta Lee Woods, Santa Cruz, CA

I received my panels and they are GORGEOUS, GORGEOUS, GORGEOUS.   The workmanship is amazing. I’m not sure I can even bring myself to cover them with paint – actually I can’t wait to paint on such a beautiful surface.  I will definitely order again.
