## Description

SEQUENTIAL ART 500 BRISTOL 2PLY SEMI SMOOTH 24 SHEET 11X17

Review: Great paper that is hard to find - This paper is great for layered graphite. It is smoother than vellum but has enough "tooth" and is not slick like smooth Bristol. Being smoother than Bristol vellum it is easier to get really fine details. I was introduced to it at a botanical drawing class. I don't understand while art stores (even large art stores) will carry other paper in this series but not this paper. Many people do not even know it exists. Give it a try!
Review: Five Stars - I love this stuff. I can't wait to buy more.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it blank paper?**
A: Yes, it’s blank and with a smooth surface.  I’m using it for pen and ink.

**Q: Is this paper Plate finish or semi smooth?  The picture says semi smooth, the description says plate.**
A: An EXCELLENT question! I had purchased this paper before and it was, indeed, semi-smooth. But the newest batch I picked up (here and at an online art supply store) are clearly PLATE finish. I do not recommend it if you want a little tooth to your paper.

I love this stuff. I can't wait to buy more.

### ⭐⭐ I thought it was plate surface, until strathmore got back to me
*by D***E on 16 March 2020*

This is great paper. that being said it is great plate surface paper?? This does not seem like a semi-smooth surface at all. I have 3 pads of the plate finish here in my art studio ( which i love, but I ALREADY HAVE PLENTY OF PLATE!!!!) i compared the 2 and even tested out the paper via an electronic microscope and it pretty much looks like plate surface.. so my question now is WHY?? it comes from an office supply store and i highly doubt they are switching the paper out. Whats going on here?!?!?!? Ive seen a few other people saying the same thing as me and one person even said they purchased this from 2 seperate online art stores and got the same thing ( same as me too). I dont want to send it back because 1. I can and will use it with out a doubt and 2. They will send a replacement that will be the same exact thing. Iam goiong to contacting strathmore to see what the heck is going on with this paper. ( i bought this paper because Shannon from Strathmore was very kind and sent me out samples of their illustration board upon my request, but this semi-smooth finish was not in there ) iam Kinda let down because i was excited to try out this semi-smooth paper. Its hard to get ahold of. (*** UPDATE***) i emailed Shannon from Strathmore ( the contact i had for sames of their illustration board ) and she got back to me right away when i told/asked her about this semi-smooth Bristol. She said .." yes that is definitely the semi-smooth suface, that i did not recieve a sample of it because it is not a popluar paper. The surface is supposed to be a smooth surface with a slight more tooth than the bristol. It is so slight that it does get mistaken for the bristol plate surface" i did mention the comments and complaints on the paper a d she even asked me to send her links to show the company feed back from artists. It will help improve and develop a product that us artists want. So please leave your comments, thoughts, issues and even likes about the paper.
