Review on LYTek Premium Heavy Weight Painting 15 Sheets by Morgan Gilmore

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Superfine Artist Paper Heavyweight

This oil and acrylic painting paper is fantastic! It is developed and distributed by LYTek Paper of Bellevue, Washington. My older brother lived there many years ago and it's a great place here in the US. This particular paper weighs 198 pounds but the notepad says 215 pounds. So there is some confusion here. But it doesn't matter because this paper is thick. When you touch it you think the pages will stick together, but that's not the case as the paper is very thick. Size 9 x 12 inches, premium artist paper. The paper does not spread, has a canvas texture. It is white and acid free. It resists light and air damage. Fastened with non-toxic glue. I really like when they glue the sides because it's more stable when working. Just be extra careful when tearing off the page when you're done. I am so thrilled with this paper as it is of the highest quality. But it also scares me because I'm afraid of making a mistake. Take a deep breath. It's just paper, grab it! Ha! Yes, it's only paper, but very beautiful! Love it!

Pros
  • TRUE SIZE 9" x 12": Premium artist paper with a true size of 9" x 12". Takes up much less storage space than traditional canvases while still maintaining the professional look of the finished project.
Cons
  • Incredible piggy bank
