Working on black paper opens an entirely new creative dimension. The deep black surface makes highlights, metallics and opaque paints stand out brilliantly, allowing for striking visual contrast and atmospheric compositions.
This 300gsm mixed media paper blends the strength of watercolor paper with the smooth control of a drawing surface. The vellum texture grips dry media nicely while supporting washes, layering and thicker applications of acrylic or gouache.
Part of the Strathmore 400 Series, it is designed for artists seeking professional performance in both sketching and final artwork.
