Versatile and Durable Art Paper!

This art paper is perfect for my arts and crafts projects! Based on my observations from using it the mixed vellum sheets are very versatile and sturdy. They can handle multiple mediums, including charcoal, ink, and watercolor. The paper's texture brings a unique quality to my artwork, making it stand out .However, the price is a bit on the higher end, making it a luxury purchase for some. Overall, I highly recommend this art paper for any artist looking to add a touch of quality to their work…

Pros
  • High-quality paper with a smooth surface for various mediums.
Cons
  • Tendency to buckle and wrinkle when working with wet media such as watercolor.

Not Worth Your Time

The arts and crafts world is always looking for the best papers to draw on, but this product doesn't make the cut. Based on my observations, the vellum texture had a horrible effect on the INK and pencils leaving my drawings looking scratchy and incomplete. While the weight of the paper was nice it was not worth the hassle of my artwork looking less than professional. Save yourself the frustration and look for another paper option. .

Pros
  • The weight of the paper was nice
Cons
  • The vellum texture left my drawings looking scratchy and incomplete.

These boards are amazing!

These panels are fantastic! I've experimented with both sides to see which one I like best in my copies. I inserted two pictures. I can't remember which is wet and which is dry, but I like the effect on both sides. Definitely recommend them to other illustrators. Strathmore will never let me down!

Pros
  • Archival Lignin and Acid Free Paper
Cons
  • Rosette required
