Made from a mix of raw sunn hemp fibre and recycled sunn hemp. Handmade on a chapri, a grass stem screen, the impression of the screen is visible on the sheet as a laid pattern. Sheets are dried on a plaster wall and surface sized with wheat starch. The paper is pressed between zinc sheets to make the smooth surface.
This handmade paper has irregular edges and a pleasing smooth surface. The irregular texture and shape is part of the beauty of this handamde paper.

It was recommended to me by someone and having used Arches I found it was a good cheaper alternative. It worked well with granulating paints.

Tracedown is a product I have used before. This pack was reasonably priced, and arrived in good condition and very quickly. Thank you.

As always, Arches oil painting paper is wonderful especially for oil & cold wax medium work where layering & texture is king!

I bought this brush some time ago based on a recommendation from someone— can't remember who though. I then forgot about it until I received a request to write a review from The Southbank Art Company. I've now tried it, and I've found it to be a lovely brush to use. It lays down the paint beautifully. It also holds a lot of paint enabling continued use without having to return to the palette so often. The point of the brush is good too, giving a lovely narrow lines where necessary.
I'll continue to use this brush, and will probably look at buying other sizes too.
