I'm a beginner oil painting enthusiast and this papers reduced my cost of learning a lot.I am not a professional and hence I don't know whether this is a professional grade or not, but I can can assure you that I am satisfied.

The texture is very noticeable on this paper. I like that it looks like real canvas. I did a little bit of water soluble pencils on it to see if that works. It does! Pen and ink sticks to it also. It works with more than just oils and acrylics so far.

I've tried several brands of oil painting paper and this is the one I like the best. The surface of this paper is perfect for use without adding additional preparation. The paint sits nicely on top without sucking up too much of the oil which is a problem I've had with other brands. I also like the texture which mimics linen. It's sturdy and doesn't warp. I really love this product, I just wish it came in much larger sheets.

I like the size to do smaller studies. 6x8. I use water soluble oils. Plus the paper is still so I can frame it easy.Once dry I will put behind glass. Has a nice canvas like texture. This painting is done with water soluble oils.

The paper is great and worked well with all the acrylic brands I have and use. This included Thick body acrylics, I definitely will invest in more of this paper

I needed a pad of acrylic/oil paper for an oil painting class and this was one of the professor’s recommendations. The paper is a bright natural white, thick and sturdy, and definitely holds up to oil paint unlike lighter weight paper marked “multi media”. I will buy again.

Lo busque en papelerías favor y estaba 80 pesos más caro, el cuaderno es grande y las hojas muy gruesas para pintar a colores o acuarelas está perfecto con óleos recomiendo buscar óleos al agua por qué de otros tarda años en secar

This stuff is great for practicing, testing new materials or you aren’t sure if you want to waste a canvas. It’s decently heavy, has a stiff canvas texture and feel and holds up well. If you later a LOT od heavy/thick paints it may curl a little as it dries. Not sure if that was from those particular paints or the paper but it was noticed enough to mention.Great value for the money! (I tried a cheaper item and it felt like a thick textured cardboard/posterboard like you’d find on the back of a drawing pad and immediately returned to Canson.)

I'm very happy with this paper for Mixed Media.It's my first time using it... I'm not sure why I haven't tried it before, but I'm glad I tried it during this project. It was just what I needed.I just finished utilizing it to illustrate a "junk-journal style" children's book, so I used/tested plenty of different mediums this past week.I have no skin in the game, bought this myself. But I enjoy reading reviews before buying (before wasting my money lol) so maybe this review will help a fellow crafter/maker/artist decide what paper they need.It held up well to acrylics, gesso, Sharpie markers, Posca paint pens, tempuras, and different types of adhesives. No problems.This is probably the best paper I've EVER used with Gesso because the medium didn't distort the page in any way. I applied it on THICK! The paper/canvas didn't budge. Continued to lay flat.From now on, if I need a spackle-thick texture (like the hospital cut-out in the photo) this will be my go-to paper. And to think, I had almost sworn off Gesso and gel mediums. I just didn't have the right paper.I DID NOT use watercolor on this paper, and wouldn't.It's not pourous or absorbent, so your watercolors wouldn't be effective. I also wouldn't recommend using this as your primary sketching pad.You'll be able to draw on the page before painting, but it's too slick for graphite or charcoal to stay put.I have not tried oils yet, but it's supposed to work well with oil paint so I'm not worried.It took my ink pens fine. I haven't painted with Indian Ink or Quink on it yet, but again, the non-porous surface probably won't take to the inking arts very well-- nor would I want to use any water based markers on it.You can always attach your painted or sketched pg to this heavy canvas paper by adhering it, as I've done in my project. You can try laying down a layer of gesso or gel medium to make this paper play better with water based paints & markers. Once your surface is dry, that should work fine.In my photos, you can see where I used this paper in some of the cutouts (photo: pregnant mom and hospital cutout) and I also used it as the sturdy paper I built each page onto. (The hands are also a cutout from my sketchpad and applied to the canvas ppr.)I usually use heavy cardstock or heavy (overly expensive) watercolor paper to give more weight to the pages in these projects, but so far, this canvas paper is superior, and it's a better value $.Hope this helps. Happy making :)
