Review: Beautiful, works great, dries flat - Love this paper. Works like the other colors of mixed media paper. The only downside: it tears easily when removing masking tape compared to the other colors of Strathmore mixed media paper. Strathmore mixed media papers are my go to. I tape down the paper to a board, and use gouache or watercolor. Even if i use heavy washes, the paper dries flat. I dint have to prewet the paper before I tape it.
Review: Great product, great weight - This is GREAT paper for mixed media and gouache, not so much watercolor. Heavy weight prevents warping
