I used the product to print some custom graphics on. It held the ink well, it was easy to deckle and looks fantastic in a frame. No complaints….a great product overall.

I have long turned to Velvet Fine Art for my B&W prints for gallery or exhibitions. Gives such rich, deep results. Highly recommended.

In terms of quality and price (via B&H), you can’t beat the results with this paper when used with Epson inks. Great color and blacks in matte mode (I rarely use photo black).

I like the feel and color rendition of this paper.

I have tried different papers for my photos of flowers. This by far beats out any I ran tests on as far as detail and color are concerned. I highly recommend it.

This is the first time I have used this paper, and I am astounded at the results. I am printing on an Epson Pro3880, and I was simply thrilled when the first print came out of the printer. This paper is NOT cheap, so I plan to use something else for drafts, but this will definitely be me go to paper for final images.

First of all, I’m a matte paper user. I have tried other papers but I keep coming back for the consistency and beauty I get with Velvet Fine Art. I prefer this in sheets to Somerset Velvet on a roll, though of course there is a premium to pay and size limitations that exist. I really love the texture of this paper as well for looking at prints in the hand. Most end up under glass of course.

I ordered this paper for the architecture firm I work for. We were looking for a paper that was professional, vibrant and sharp. Many of the other matte papers that we tried lost the full color range. As a result, our work lost its 3d quality. This paper afforded us great saturation on the blacks and bold colors.

This is the first time ive ever printed my art and the first paper ive used so i dont have anything to compare it to. I will say that this company is great to shop with. They have the best prices and their merchandise is top notch. As for my prints again ….. the colors came out beautiful on this paper. I use an Epson Surecolor P 900 and wanted to start out with paper that was compatible with my printer. I love it.

This is my go to paper for color. It does a great job of reproducing what I see on the monitor with vibrant color.

This is great paper for many prints that I want to have texture in the picture. This paper often gives a painting like feel to digital prints.

I use it for B&W printing.

If you have a local printer ask them to use this paper when printing your artwork. I didn’t use it for photography, so I don’t know how well that works. But scanned images of your artwork will print out well on this paper. A tip: don’t be discouraged if the first few prints don’t come out well. I had to use a variety of printers and settings before I found the perfect one for reproductions. Just keep trying and then stick to one method when you find it!

This paper makes a simple photograph look as if it is a water color. The colors are bright and vibrant and surprisingly, despite the texture of the paper, no sharpness of the print is affected. Love the heaviness and feel of it. We are using this paper for most of our prints for a Photo show in a local Art gallery in the near future. Hope it generates great sales.
