What is acid-free paper, and why is it important?
Acid-free paper is treated to prevent yellowing and deterioration over time. It’s essential for preserving artwork and ensuring longevity.
How should I store my paper and pads?
Store them flat in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping, fading, or damage.
What is toned paper, and when should I use it?
Toned paper comes in colours (e.g., grey, tan) and provides a mid-tone background, allowing artists to work with both highlights and shadows effectively. It’s popular for charcoal, pastels, and sketching.
