The original Aurora Art White weight is back! If you require archival grade cotton paper but prefer medium weight and thickness, this is the Aurora for you!

My go to paper for photos

I print most of my photos on the Aurora white. They give a sense of texture to the work. Since my photos are mostly abstract the paper works great for me. Really see those details. I also purchased the 4x6 size to use for previews. I find if I print a small version of different takes on a piece in progress it helps me to finalize the finished product without wasting ink or paper.

Not good for Epson P-900

The paper is fantastic-lovely texture and feel and my art reproduces well. My issue is with my printer. If you are using an Epson SC-P900 I must caution you. Mine stops feeding this paper after 4 sheets at the most. Again-this printer has known feed issues, I don’t think it’s necessarily the fault of the paper. It could also be the greeting card size (6.25-9) I’m not sure how it works with full sheets. I wish it got along better with my printer.

I am a watercolor and ink artist and I've just started selling my prints at a local art gallery, Creative Spark Arts. I've been using this paper for greeting cards. This is my first time using a professional paper and I am really happy with the true colors I get and how well the ink stays fast. The paper feels really nice in your hands. You know you're holding a quality print with Aurora Art White 250. It really picks up the texture of the Arches watercolor paper that I use. I am using a Canon Pixma G4010 series inkjet printer and I have been typically using the high-quality setting with the matte photo paper setting. I use the Affinity Photo program to tweak the scans of my artwork.

This paper is the best! When I started my business I had such a hard time finding paper that would create clear prints of my artwork. This paper does just that! Customer service and shipping times are great too.

I am a watercolor artist and I sell my prints on Etsy. I've been using both Aurora White papers for years and I am really pleased with the true colors I get. I am using a Canon Pro-100 on the matte paper N setting and getting great high quality results. I can justify higher prices for my prints and I’ve never had a complaint!

Aurora art white is my favorite paper

I use all sizes and in most cases prefer the matte finish to glossies. I have been using it for years, and people say my photos resemble paintings. I highly recommend it as well as Red River.

I used Aurora 250 for bookmaking

I needed to bend and fold paper for a couple artist books. This paper once again has proven to be up to the task. It's heavy enough and bends properly to make a professional job for me. I needed it this time in roll form to go onto my 24" printer. The paper curve has let go after a couple days, so the book closes properly.

www.SaltboxPost.etsy.com. When using the Aurora for postcards, my prints came out beautiful. Other papers of the same type did not stand up, take a look and see for yourself in my lil postcard shop.

Aurora White is the star of my business!

As a gardener and biologist, I have been drawing sometimes real, sometimes whimsical, flowers for many years. When I decided to try to transform my drawings into greeting cards, I struggled to print the art to my standard of quality. By some wonderful luck, I stumbled upon Red River Paper and Aurora White. With information and advice from Red River, I can now print high quality images of my art. I've been able to create not only greeting cards, but calendars, wall art, postcards, recipe cards and journals with this wonderful paper. Aurora White (and Red River) have made my little Etsy business a reality! Thank you!!!
