Bristol is a smooth, heavyweight paper designed for techniques that require a stable, low-absorbency surface. The smooth finish suits ink, pen, marker and detailed illustration, where a consistent surface allows for clean, precise linework. The vellum finish offers a slight texture that holds pencil and dry pastel better while retaining the structural quality of Bristol. The large-format coloured boards add another dimension: they allow working on a coloured ground with opaque media such as gouache, acrylic or paint markers, without having to prepare the surface beforehand. A versatile support for illustration, comics, lettering and mixed media. For the full Fabriano range, visit Fabriano.
