Matching the right paper to your creative vision ensures your artwork achieves its intended impact. For vibrant watercolors, textured and absorbent paper brings depth and richness to washes. Artists working with dry media, such as graphite or charcoal, benefit from smooth or slightly textured paper for precise lines and shading. Mixed media projects thrive on durable, versatile surfaces like canvas or heavy paper. Acid-free papers are crucial for ensuring that colours remain vibrant and your work stays intact over time. By carefully considering your medium, technique, and artistic goals, you can select paper that supports your creative process and enhances the quality of your final piece.
