Thanks to everyone for the information. For that print I used a paper
called Stonehenge (it's a heavier paper). I guess I'll just have to
experiment. I'll try the Arches 88. Thanks again.

Send Message: To this poster

Lori, I have used the Akua Kolor very successfully printing hanga-style (brushing the color on the woodblock rather than rolling it on), using damp (as in a damp sponge, not "wet") paper. The paper I have used is Asian paper for woodblock printing, like McClain's nishinouchi and Yamaguchi paper which I bought from Graham Scholes.

happy printing!!
