YasutomoRice Paper Sketch Pad 12 1/8” x 18 1/8” 50 Sheets

This paper s great value for money - bought for proofing, but I find it also excellent for monoprints. Both sides can be used, for different effects. The surface is extremely sensitive, and picks up detail and texture beautifully.

Thicker than other brands, sturdy weight paper. Great for gelli printing!

This paper is ideal for printmaking on the Gelli Press. It takes detail very well, and is easy to use in book making, which is my main use of the gelli prints.

I’m a experienced Japanese calligrapher and a Sumi-E painter. It’s a nice, smooth, and thicker mulberry paper and I like the touch of it. Its downside is that it bleeds a lot and drys the brush quick. It’s definitely difficult to work with it, but I found out that it works on certain Sumie paintings. Choosing a right paper is one of the key factors to be successful depending on your project, isn’t it.

I am new to Sumi, so I read all the comments by commenters for guidance. The majority said this paper is the best.The size was convincting, too.I was chuffed to see the nice weight to the paper. My neighbor saw it sitting on my table, and promptly took a piece! It's real appealing to touch.I am finding Yasutomo products to be absolutely top rate and am not buying from other vendors anymore.btw, the delivery was astonishingly fast and it was crated with total care.

This item is okay quality if it is flat-- but it will not be if you order it here. It is bent for insertion in shipping boxes, which made it pretty much useless for making gyotaku prints.

Love rice paper quality. I use it for my gel plate monogram printing.

Great for making geli prints and homemade collage papers.
