I made my own paper out of newspaper, lent, eggshells, computer paper, toilet paper, and paper towels. It ended up having a cardboard feel rather than a normal paper feel.i have a close up so you can see what i painted and a farther away picture so you can see the way the paper looks.
It was made with charcoal over acrylic on paper........i wanted to make it look a little more cartoon looking, but i haven't decided yet if i'm happy with it.
