Care Instructions
One of the many things that differentiates these hand painted Elysian Art Styling Surfaces from anything else in the marketplace are the two coats of archival varnish that are placed on each creation. This extra step helps make these pieces liquid resistant, protects and resists dirt (doing detail shots outside - no stress) and also allows colors to maintain vibrant and textures to be protected for many years to come!
These Elysian Art Styling Surfaces are far more resistant against stains than fabric surfaces, but I recommend treating any stains or residue immediately for the best results. Gently spot clean with a damp cloth if needed. Avoid using excessive moisture or any harsh chemicals.
The archival varnish also allows you to style food with ease without fear of damaging the paint or texture. However, these creations are not food-safe so please don’t consume any food after you are done styling.
Always roll your Art Styling Surface during transport in a protective case or kraft tube and never crease or fold. When you are not using, it is recommended that you lay the creation out flat in the opposite direction in a safe location or hang in your home as art to minimize sides from curling.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: I see that they are rollable, are they durable too?
