Selecting the right paper involves considering several factors, including weight, texture, and compatibility with your medium. Heavier papers, such as those with a weight of 300gsm or more, are essential for wet techniques like watercolor or ink. Textured paper enhances the vibrancy and detail of pastels, while smooth options are ideal for sketching and detailed linework. Acid-free papers ensure your work remains vibrant and intact over time, especially for archival projects. Artists should also consider the type of finishโhot-pressed for smoothness or cold-pressed for texture. By evaluating these factors, you can choose a paper that not only supports your technique but also enhances the overall quality of your work.
