Review on 🎨 Arteza Mixed Media Paper Foldable Canvas Pad, 8 x 11 Inches, 20 Sheets of Black Drawing Paper, 246 lb, Art Supplies for Wet and Dry Media, Ideal for SEO by Carol Miller

I wish I had tried this sooner! This backing (very heavyweight paper that folds into a canvas) is absolutely PERFECT for metallic watercolors and markers. I've tried many different types of black paper, including watercolor paper, for my Fintec/Coliro paint collection and they all had problems - usually the paint just dries very flat and lifeless. This finish is by far the best black substrate I've found for paints and my metallic acrylic markers - the colors stay shiny and very vibrant when they dry and they keep their color. I guess, that the coating of this paper makes it both durable and an excellent surface for metallic paints. How wonderful to have this material ready to use - so far I've used a very light coat of black gesso on all my black papers, just to add an extra layer to let the watercolour/acrylic pop out a bit. more. This paper completely eliminates the need for it and folds into a gallery-style canvas once the painting is complete. Can't recommend enough. so that the watercolour/acrylic stands out a bit. more.
