A4 ~ Starter Pack

We have created these small packs so that you can decide which weights suit you best before making a larger purchase.

These are large enough to make small paintings on and of course, you can use both sides.

Each pack contains one sheet of each of our standard weights in A4 ~ 140lb, 200lb, and 300lb.

TR Original Cotton and Linen Rag Handmade Paper.

Acid Free ~ Gelatine tub sized.

This paper is tough enough to handle watercolour, acrylics, pastels, oils, mixed media and printmaking processes. It can take reworking without breaking down, and allows paint and pigments to dry to a sharp, bright finish.

The texture of the paper increases with sheet weight: Our 140lb (310 gsm) paper has a smoother surface than the 300lb (630 gsm) paper.

Weights in gsm: 310gsm / 410gsm / 630gsm

Questions about our Paper?

Two Rivers is the paper of choice for many artists worldwide. It is both forgiving and versatile, making it suitable for a wide range of media, including watercolour, acrylics, oils, pastels, printmaking, and photographic processes.

All our products are handmade by skilled craftspeople using traditional methods. Each sheet is created from a blend of cotton and linen that has been broken down into individual fibres using the mill’s Hollander beaters.

The gentle air-drying process and gelatine sizing enhance the paper’s strength. Our sizing method allows artists to easily manipulate paint on the surface, or even to remove it. The paint does not absorb into the paper, allowing the pigment to dry to a sharp, brilliant finish. The entire making process, from start to finish, takes 3 to 4 working days.
