Painting Papers

Why use painting paper vs everyday paper? In a nutshell, specialist painting paper ensures your painting will come out beautifully and will last the test of time. It also has a high-performance barrier to absorb oil, bonding agents and water evenly, while guaranteeing superb resistance by the surface paint layer.

 

 

Types of painting papers

 

Canvas paper: Canvas paper is made of cotton duck canvas and is suitable for all levels of artists. It's also ideal for oil paints or acrylic paints and can be framed.


Mixed media: mixed media papers are suitable for use with most media, including watercolours, ink, pencil, acrylic and more. 


Oil painting paper: oil painting paper has a tough surface that withstands heavy brushing with stiff bristle brushes. It holds up well to palette knives as well as wet paint removal with turpentine and a rag.

Should I paint on canvas or paper?
