    I love this paper. I use it all the time. For those that know my work, maybe too much! The photo here shows a variety of rice papers. This is just white.

    While this paper is expensive, it will give your imagery a very unique look.

    I've been doing areas of carvings into raw clay by masking specific areas, so my natural progression is to try block printing on paper. For my blocks of color and subject matter this paper is tops to carry off the finer touches, and to complete the look I want. E.

    I have used this paper, as well as other brands, in printmaking with good results.

    I love this paper and have used it to make handwritten books given as gifts in the style of Illuminated Texts and was wonderful to work with.

    Excellent paper to use for hinging artwork to matboard- it's archival and very strong.

    I have one sheet left I was given in a workshop and have used some of it and did two Japanese style paintings. and combined one over the other and this paper is so thin the two became one with my sandwiched work. Wonderful paper. You must be quick with your brush as inks spread rapidly.

    I use Japanese Paper with my printmaking. I find it to be of great quality and a really good tool.

    A lovely light weight paper. I do not draw on this paper as it is way to light to withstand my abuse, but I love to use it for collage.

    Mulberry and a Sumi, throw in some ink and it's party time! Yes, you have to frame the stuff (or put it in a scroll), but it has a distinctive tactile look that nothing else does. If you get into your supplies like I do, give 'em a try.
