Strathmore Printmaking Paper Pad 8X10-20 Sheets -62433800

As expected

I took a printmaking class in college, and I really enjoyed woodcut and linoleum reduction relief printing. The papers I was required to use in college was not very budget friendly, so I wanted to look at lower-cost alternatives that wouldnt skimp too much on the final print quality. I decided to go ahead and get a pad of this heavyweight paper to try it out. I havent pulled a print with this paper yet, but I can tell that so far it meets my expectations. The paper is a nice thickness, and has a reasonably nice tooth to it, and it seems that itll take ink well. It doesnt have the deckle edging that a lot of fine artists seem to prefer, but thats not very important to me. Good to know: I use AKUA water-based inks and a baren for pulling prints. I dont know how this paper will perform for oil-based inks or a press.

I absolutely love this paper for nature printing! LOVE IT!!

Excellent quality. Love the quality, size and presentation of the paper. Arrived just as if left the factory floor, perfect!

The best paper Ive bought for painting acrylic so far! It only comes with 15 sheets so I dont use it until Im sure I have my painting ready and set to go and I know its going to look good so I dont waste the good paper! LOL

Great product, great price

I love this paper it takes ink and paper very well. I really see a difference if so t use this paper : and it’s strong can handle washes .

I use this paper for etchings and it works beautifully. It is also available at a reduced rate on subscribe and save.

I made it work but both of these pedals arrived to me with Stripped Threads. Not a good review

Hey there gang, I draw on this paper instead of making prints. I use Rives BFK if Im going to make prints. That said, this stuff is pretty damn good, takes a variety of media well (ink, pen, pencil, conte crayon, gouache). Only issue is using an eraser causes tearing on the paper and then you realize the core of the product is not good. Look, for what it costs this is a great product and the 8x10 size awesome because I dont have to tear down other paper to draw on.
