Review on Strathmore 580 72 Bristol Surface Sheets by Kristen Reid

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Light watercolor strokes ripple the paper. A dry environment works best.

Good paper despite the low price. Light watercolor washes are not necessary as the paper will curl. The dry pencil technique and pastels work best. However, I would like to get a smaller area than 11x14. Other sizes were not offered. However, this is a good quality Bristol last. I recommend parchment for chalk, graphite, and pastel artists.

Pros
  • Drawing, painting and handicraft supplies
Cons
  • Requires a socket
