Made on a cylinder mould (traditional process): quality close to that of paper made by craft methods. The slow turning of the cylinder enables the fibres to be deposited evenly and spread in all directions over the wire. The paper is homogeneous, with a flatter surface and better wet strength and stability, giving the artist more control. Only papermaking on a cylinder mould can produce paper with deckle edges..

A balanced fine grain, comparable to that of a stretched canvas, making for very comfortable working. Allows the artist to play with the surface, to obtain shadow and light effects. Perfect for oil sketches.

The perfect balance artists need to express their creativity. Its grammage and thickness are suited to the application of both washes and impasto. Practical to use as it can easily be cut to the desired size. Strong, but lightweight, it can easily be rolled up to transport. Ideal for painting outdoors (unlike canvas).

Unique sizing and oil barrier (semi-absorbent surface). Ready to use without preparation (priming optional): saves time and there is less risk of damaging the surface in the preparatory stage. Resistant to scratching. Prevents greasy rings forming and protects the fibres from oxidation in contact with the paint. Very tolerant to solvents. The paint sits on the surface for an excellent rendering of the colours and faster drying times.

Suitable for Oil Paints and Oil Pastels
