Free: Illustration & masonite boards (Hanover Park) I have to give away: 3 pieces of illustration board - like heavy duty poster board, but good to paint on for fine art with air brush, gouache, and other paints. The piece in the photo has a little bit of blue on it - and some light pencil drawing - easily covered up. 4 pieces of Masonite boards - at least I think that's what it is.
