Overview:

Live in the moment with the Buddha Board portable painting set. With just a dab of water, each stroke of the brush appears like black ink on the surface. Similar to watercolor painting, the board produces soft, beautiful images. As the water slowly evaporates, your painting fades and a new blank canvas is revealed.

With the mentality of a Zen Buddhist, you're free to create pictures on a whim, without concern for the outcome. The Buddha Board is great for relaxing, clearing your thoughts, and is just plain fun. It's the perfect gift for the hard-to-shop-for.

Features & specs:

  • Board dimensions: 9.5" x 12" x 0.125"
  • Base dimensions: 6" x 4.5" x 1.75"
  • Bamboo brush (8")
  • Board can rest horizontally or vertically in base

Create an infinite number of paintings with the Buddha Board

The Buddha Board fully encapsulates the concept of "living in the moment". Dip the bamboo brush into water and start painting. Your strokes will quickly appear in a rich black color reminiscent of watercolor paintings.

Don't become obsessed with the outcome, but instead enjoy the simple act of putting brush to board. As the water evaporates, your painting will fade away so that you may begin again.

With the Buddha Board, you can enjoy the carefree act of painting without consequence.

Quick to setup and easy to use

There are three main pieces that make up the Buddha Board: The board, the base, and the brush. Simply fill the base with some water, rest the board in the notches of the base, and start painting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question: What if I really like the painting? How do I "save" it from being erased?

Answer: You could take a photograph. However, please keep in mind that the purpose of the Buddha Board is to relax, clear your mind, and enjoy the painting process. The end result isn't important. And this is probably a good thing unless you're a budding Picasso.

Question: How many times can it be used?

Answer: The Buddha Board can be reused an infinite number of times. It does not get "worn out" from use.

Question: Do thicker brush strokes "last" longer?

Answer: The intensity and richness of the black color can be controlled by how much water is applied to the board. Also, wetter strokes will take longer to evaporate than relatively drier strokes.

Your questions that have been answered by the Vat19.com staff

Q: is there a way that you can erase the image on the spot? like instead of waiting it to evaporate?
A: You could use a hair dryer to speed up the evaporation.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: How long does the "art" last for?
A: This depends on how lightly you paint on the Buddha Board. Extremely light, dry strokes could disappear in a 5-10 secondss. Darker, heavier strokes (which have more water) may take anywhere from 5 - 15 minutes to completely disappear.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: What is the country of origin of the Buddha Board?
A: The Buddha Board is made in China.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: Will the ink of the brush run out?
A: There is no actual ink in the brush. In fact, you could probably use any old brush with the Buddha Board. What makes your "paintings" appear is just water.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: How long will a average picture last before it "disappears"?
A: That all depends on how much water you use. If your brush is relatively dry, an image may disappear in as little as 30 seconds. Really wet paintings may last 15 minutes. So, I guess the average painting would last about 5 minutes.
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: Did Buddha invent this board?
A: Nope. If it was invented by Buddha, would you buy it? Because in that case, we'd say yes. (just kidding!)
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: How many different prouducts did you cross-promo in the video?
A: In the Buddha Board video? Shockingly, none!
Was this question useful to you? Yes | No

Q: will the paper get ridgy like there's air holes in it?
A: With normal use, the Buddha Board will not get air bubbles or ridges in it. Be sure to prevent the bottom of the board from sitting in water, as that could eventually cause the paper to pull away from the board.
