The ULTIMATE Eco Paper? Stone paper review for watercolours and ink

This paper is 100% recycled, no trees injured, made with less CO2 and in every way apparently more eco friendly than our delightful watercolour papers we normally go for.

That's right, I'm reviewing and testing stone paper, in the form of a stone paper sketchbook. And we'll look at just how good (or not) stone paper might be for our sketching, watercolours and ink drawing.

BUT, does it live up to the hype. Can paper made of stone actually be any good?

In this video we'll be exploring all this and more - I'll test how this paper responds to water, to ink and to water colour painting processes.

Then, we'll even do a quick and fun sketch of a busy street scene.

By the end, we'll make up our minds - is stone paper worth it, or just a nutty invention?

This paper was given to me for free but I was not asked for anything in return and they did not ask me to make them a video - this video was produced without any input from the company who gave me the paper and is not a paid promotion.
