Mixed Media on Mashi Hosho Paper
Mashi Hosho paper is a double layered paper from Echizen, Japan. Smooth Mashi is fused with sturdy Hosho to produce a thick, sturdy paper that accepts mediums beautifully on both sides. This 150 gsm paper feels like cardstock but has gorgeous properties that Karen Elaine shares in this mixed media demonstration.
