BFK Rives Printmaking Papers is rated 5.0 out of 5 by 7.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from the best paper for large paintings I've used this paper for years. it's heavy enough to take alot of media without buckling. Jerry's automatically packed it flat for mailing which I usually have to ask other art supply houses to do or they will send it rolled. it makes a big difference.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Paper for Acrylic/Mixed Media I use BFK Rives for abstract paintings using acrylic and mixed media. It is absorbent and can provide a watercolor effect if desired. It is thick and durable enough that it can take some rough treatment, such as mild scraping, etc. The 22x30 size has a nice deckled edge. I love this paper.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great! Great for woodblock prints! Nice weight and takes etching inks beautifully. Got me through my entire semester of printmaking.
Date published: 2018-01-05
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nothing compares Truly a perfectly crafted paper. I've been using Rives BFK for several years and I literally can't use anything else for my charcoal drawings or my intaglio prints. I've tried everything and nothing comes remotely close. It is well worth the price, the quality is unsurpassable.

A friend gave me a handmade book made from this paper and I'm interested in possibly using it for watercolor. How suitable is this paper for watercolor? Since it is made for wet ink, I figure it should be a good paper for it. Other people's experience?

Asked by: Shawn_B
BFK paper is intended to be used for printmaking processes. For example lithography, intaglio engraving, letterpress, and screen-printing.--- The paper has enough tooth for very light watercolor washes---but BFK paper does not have the gelatin sizing that keeps watercolor from bleeding on traditional watercolor paper, your results will not be as good as they would be if you used traditional 100% cotton watercolor paper for your watercolor painting.
