Why Your Paper Matters

Show Notes:

Season 2

334 - Why Your Paper Matters

There are so many different types of papers and surfaces that you can use for your artwork. Your choice of paper depends on so many different factors, like level of experience, preference in tactile surface feeling, and your unique mark-making.

In this episode, Barb and John discuss some of these key differences to be aware of when selecting papers. They also talk about which surfaces they each prefer to use now.
