Paper Catalogue February 2015
Paper Catalogue February 2015 Paper is perhaps the most varied surface you can work on – from smooth to rough, hard to soft, thin to thick. It is easy to cut, fold, pierce, join, and tear. Even good paper is relatively inexpensive, providing a cheaper alternative to canvas for acrylic and oil painters, as well as a perfect surface for all drawing media, printmaking, and watercolour techniques. Many people are unaware of the various properties different papers offer, so let’s look at those: Surface texture is immediately apparent just by looking. There are three main categories: Rough (self-evident); Matte or Cold Press or NOT (as in NOT rough) which has visible tooth but not to the degree of Rough; and Smooth or Hot Press (pressed with hot rollers as the paper emerges still wet from the machine), which has very little discernable tooth. Each surface reacts differently to your drawing/painting media. Rough papers tend to add an illusion of depth to painting, as varied thicknesses of pigment lay thinly on the relief or deeper in the trough of the surface. Smooth papers produce flat areas of paint but can show a surprising amount of tooth when used with graphite or charcoal. The weight of the paper is expressed in Grams per Square Metre (GSM). This often coincides with the thickness, but a loosely formed paper may feel thicker than a tightly compacted (calendared) paper of the same weight. Usually, a thick paper of 250 - 300gsm is more appropriate for painting, as it does not distort as it absorbs moisture as much as a thinner paper. 600gsm papers hardly move at all, even with very wet paint. Thinner papers are suited to dry media techniques, and papers under 100gsm can easily be traced through. The hardness or softness of a paper affects how paint is absorbed and its resistance to erasing and bleeding. A hard paper will not “pill up” (pull paper off the surface) when erasing or working with a brush, and will absorb paint more slowly than a soft paper. Soft papers are ideal for printmaking or wet-in-wet painting techniques when quick absorption is necessary. The absorption of paint is also controlled by the sizing (an additive such as gelatine) in a paper – internally sized papers are less absorbent than non-sized papers, and surface sized papers are particularly valued by watercolourists for the control of surface effects. Non-archival paper degrades quickly when exposed to UV and moisture. Old newspapers grow brittle and yellow when left in the sun. As well as suiting your technique, a good art paper should resist the damaging effects of UV light and humidity. Cotton (rag) is used to make the most durable papers, being naturally archival and composed of long-chain alpha cellulose. Wood pulp in addition contains lignin, which is an acidic compound that will degrade paper over a relatively short period of time. To make good artist’s paper from wood pulp therefore, this lignin is removed, and the resulting alpha-cellulose pulp is called “wood-free”. Cheaper to make than cotton, “wood-free” pulp still makes a high quality paper. Dry media will go on most art papers. Interesting effects can be achieved drawing on unusual papers, such as tracing paper or decorative papers. Water-based paints can be used directly on paper, but oilpaint will damage paper unless you seal it first with an acrylic size, which makes it an entirely suited and affordable support. There are literally hundreds of different paper surfaces to use. Hahnemuhle and Fabriano have both been making paper in Europe for over 400 years, so are trustworthy brands, producing good, inexpensive papers. What a huge difference a decent paper can make to your drawing/painting/printmaking practise! If you haven’t already, discover the joy of mark-making on a beautiful surface. HAHNEMüHLE Hahnemuhle has been producing the finest printmaking, painting, and bookmaking papers in Germany since 1584, using traditional cylinder mould machines for genuine deckle-edged, watermarked, “hand-made” papers. All Hahnemuhle’s papers are acid-free and lightfast, conforming to the strict international standards of DIN-Norm 6738 that guarantees resistance to ageing over one thousand years!
