Arnhem 1618 Printmaking Paper Review

"The way it absorbs ink was really important to me. Akua inks dried faster on this paper than others I've used. Also, the substantial weight of the paper-that made it seem like a higher quality paper. It has a "presence" to it that other papers don't." - PRINTMAKING PROFESSOR
