Strathmore Printmaking Paper Pad 8X10-20 Sheets -62433800

Good quality paper, but some sheets had the corners damaged, making them unusable.

I bought this printmaking paper to try the technique of boiled ecoprints, using leaves and other botanicals to make art prints, which I then use for greeting cards. Literally you boil the paper and leaves (sandwiched together in a bundle and tied with twine, video tutorials abound) for about 45 minutes. The 100% cotton allows dyes and pigments to be absorbed, and as you can see from the drying prints, the paper does not fall apart . It is very good quality printmaking paper. I have tried this technique in past years using watercolor paper, mixed media paper, heavy cardstock. This is definitely superior.

Sturdy. Nice finish
