PS90. Arches Cover Paper Black
Arches Cover Black
Mouldmade in France. 100% Cotton. Neutral pH, lightly sized, textured surface. 250gsm. 22"x30". Retail Price $8.89.

Laurie Doctor and others recommend this sheet for book, portfolio covers. It folds without cracking. Judy Melvin likes it for her calligraphic painting - however this is NOT the Arches Black that will bleach correctly. When bleach is applied to this new version the paper turns pink (salmon).

This paper ships separately from books/supplies and requires extra shipping fees which WILL NOT be displayed during checkout. We will adjust your shipping costs before we charge your card .(click to read details)

S621. Snap Blade Knife
Snap Blade Knife

This knife has a snap off blade that allows quick replacement of the sharp edge. The blade is scored, so that when the cutting point of the blade dulls, it is easy to use the tool that stores in the handle to break off the dulled piece. Then you have a fresh point for precise cutting. Often called for in bookbinding workshop supply lists. (Also called a break-off knife.)

Extra Blades S622.

BR26. W&N Sceptre Gold 101 Brush
W&N Sceptre Gold 101 Brush, Round, Short Handle

For fine detail, lines & washes. A traditional and popular head shape for all-purpose water color work. Can be used for broad strokes yet it will also form a sharp point. They possess excellent color holding capacity, sensitivity, spring and durability.

High quality brushes made from a mix of sable and synthetic fibres. They are ideal for water color and suitable for use with acrylic. For watercolor media, while today's synthetic brushes perform excellently, pure sable still has the edge. With a blend you can get performance that is close to sable at a price that is close to synthetic. The blend of hair in Sceptre Gold II also gives you added benefits. Sable hair has excellent spring while the high quality synthetic filaments ensure that the brushes are soft enough to work the color but also have a strong snap so they return back to their original shape with ease. The high proportion of sable in Sceptre Gold II gives the brushes considerably more ability to make larger washes in one stroke than normal synthetic brushes, and the hairs are tapered to a fine point, giving the brush control for detailed work.
