Strathmore 500 Series 11" x 14" Bristol Paper Pad, 15 Sheets/Pad (STTP580621)

Introducing Strathmore 500 Series Bristol Paper-- a 2-Ply Plate Surface Bristol surface with an ultra-smooth finish surface perfect for comics, cartoons, and graphic novel. A popular choice among illustrators & drawing artists because of a stiffer, museum quality surface that is ready to display without additional mounting. The term Bristol derives from the early days of European papermaking when mills would send their finest papers to Bristol, England to be pasted together to form heavyweight drawing sheets. Our Bristol Paper is available in two finishes: Plate has an ultra-smooth finish that is unsurpassed for detailed work with technical pen, airbrush and marker; Vellum has a toothy finish that is excellent for pencil, charcoal, pastel and oil pastel as well as pen, airbrush, and light washes. Our 500 Series sets the standard for excellence within the fine art industry, featuring superior-grade surfaces crafted with 100% cotton fibers for unmatched durability, carefully crafted textures & archival, acid-free composition. Endorsed by professional artists as the surface of choice for art pieces showcased in galleries, sold at auctions or submitted to the most prestigious competitions.
