GLOSSY PAPER TYPES

  • Infinity Baryta - Being the highest quality semi-gloss paper at the Shop, it boasts incredible color matching and tonal depth than most glossy papers. This paper is museum grade, acid-free, 310gsm, and a favorite of photographers and artist all around. 
  • Ultra Premium Lustre Paper - This paper is a semi-gloss (or Lustre) paper that is a medium weight at 240gsm. It holds a wide color gamut, which makes it perfect for prints of any type of art. 
  • Regular Glossy Paper - This is the most economy priced paper on the glossy spectrum that we carry at the shop. The paper has a bright shine to it, and is thinner than most papers, so looks best behind a frame. 

MATTE PAPER TYPES

  • Velvet Fine Art - A personal favorite at the Artist Shop, this bright white paper has a 100% cotton base, is acid-free, and has a rich & (you guessed it) velvet texture. Painters, especially watercolorists, love this paper for prints. 
  • Ultra Premium Presentation Matte - This heavy-weight, non-glare paper is ideal for art prints as well as everyday projects! This paper does exceptionally well with highlights and shadows and clocks in around 192gsm.
