Bristol sheets provide a stiff, strong surface to work on without the need for 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 300 Series Bristol paper is a popular choice among many artists because of the quality paper at a very reasonable price. It comes in a number of pad sizes, loose sheets, & large rolls. It is a 'bristol weight' at 100lb. (270gsm), & is perfect for finished art. Look for it in smooth & vellum surfaces. The Strathmore 300 Series provides art students & intermediate hobbyists a range of better-quality paper for quick studies, technical practice & final pieces in art class or at home. Including a wide variety of surface types, artists working with watercolor paint, acrylic paint, oil paint, pastel, colored pencil, charcoal, marker, pen, ink & more have curated paper customized for their needs. Trusted by art teachers & affordable for parents & students, the 300 Series is the best way to help build confidence in intermediate artists!
