I used this paper for a calligraphy project, and it was by far my favorite of the handmade papers that I ordered. The texture is epic, and the paper is nice & sturdy. Thank you!!

Used for printmaking and print transfer, with soft pastel and ink, and with acrylic paint. First time I have used and I liked the texture and softness of the paper. I does not hold up to scrubs or erasing, but was very nice.

This paper is not the highest quality printmaking paper, but it is great for the price. If you are looking to create an edition on a budget, or have paper with which you can create trial proofs, Fabriano Rosaspina is the paper for you!

Comments about Fabriano Rosaspina Paper:

As a printmaker, I create monotypes and screen-prints, with water and oil based ink, of plants from my garden. I love the vast array of texture found in nature. After working as a horticulturalist and florist for many years, these botanical prints express my interest in nature and its intricate details. Rosaspina printmaking paper has proven to be an excellent paper that is sturdy enough to create multi layered images while leaving wonderful embossments in paper of vascular system of foliage and small twigs. The paper takes both oil base and water based ink very well..it is excellent! I choose ivory shade to capture earthy tones. Thanks Blick for suggesting this paper for printmaking and making it available at such a reasonable price!

I was looking for a relatively affordable paper for lino cut printing. It is almost as buttery as BFK but mych cheaper. It stays flat and presents nicely.

I'm a printmaker and your zinc plates are a great value. It's the first time I've used Fabriano's Rosapina paper and it's an excellent printmaking paper at a very competitive price. When ordering art supplies, Dick Blick is the first place I look. Just wish you stocked tarlatan (starched cheesecloth). It's very difficult to find locally.

The texture and weight of this paper is perfect! Drawing on it was a dream.

I use Fabriano Rosaspina for silkscreen, but I still prefer Arches 88 (it's more expensive, though).
Sometimes the paper will not lay flat when inks are applied. It gets rippled and wavy. I still love the paper despite this, cause the prints can be flattened out again. I've also used this paper for etching, and it works really well, too.
