We’re proud to present our Paper Guide, a studio companion for artists working in a variety of mediums.

The production of today’s extensive variety of art papers benefits from centuries of paper making traditions, as well as state of the art modern technologies. Set apart from low-cost mass production, artist papers are tailor-made to suit the working methods of modern artists. We believe that understanding the qualities of your paper will help you to get the very best results.

Over 122 pages, our Paper Guide includes the history of paper, the materials and methods used for making it and how these affect its properties, a glossary of paper terms, and in-depth advice to help you choose the very best paper for your painting, drawing, or printmaking.
