Hi Geri,

I see the Unison as in between the Rembrandts and the very soft Schminkes and Senneliers.

For papers, try the Art Spectrum, relatively low in tooth, and of course, the toothier Wallis paper. The Wallis doesn't buckle when wet; the Art Spectrum folks say underpainting works well on their paper, too. The Canson will ripple (as I am sure you know) and is too fragile to manipulate wet, so that it is more likely to tear.

Good luck!
