Hahnemühle LanaVanguard 200 gsm – Smooth Artist Paper

Hahnemühle LanaVanguard 200 gsm – tear-resistant, smooth paper for mixed media

Hahnemühle LanaVanguard is an extremely smooth, very white artist paper of 200 gsm for drawing, painting and mixed media work. It is made of 100% polypropylene and, according to the manufacturer, is tear-resistant and long-lasting.

The paper stays smooth and flat whatever technique you use. The bright, smooth surface suits fine detail, and colours stand out clearly on the white ground. Choose your size from the options.

Which techniques is LanaVanguard intended for?

Hahnemühle lists acrylic, oil, gouache, ink, watercolour, felt-tip pen, marker, pencil and colouring pencil as suitable techniques. You can also use alcohol-based inks. This makes the paper well suited to work in which you combine wet and dry media.

What to consider when choosing

The smooth surface is well suited to precise lines and fine detail. If you would rather have a pronounced paper texture in your picture, as offered by classic watercolour or drawing paper with a rough surface, a textured paper is a better choice. It is best to test your favourite technique on a small area first.
