Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best paper for acrylic painting?
The best paper for acrylic painting is heavyweight (at least 300 gsm/140 lb), acid-free, and specifically designed for acrylics. Look for paper with a textured surface that can handle multiple layers without warping, such as Strathmore 400 Series Acrylic Paper, Canson XL Acrylic Pads, or Fabriano Acrylic Paper.
Can you use acrylic paint on regular paper?
Regular paper like printer or sketch paper is not suitable for acrylic paint—it’s too thin and absorbent, which can lead to buckling and soak-through. For best results, use heavyweight acrylic painting paper or prime thicker paper with gesso first.
Do you need to gesso acrylic painting paper?
Most acrylic painting paper is pre-primed or treated to accept acrylic paint, so gesso is not required. However, if you're using untreated or mixed media paper, applying gesso can improve paint adhesion and surface performance.
