Hi everyone, myself and Ashley are investigating recycled / eco papers at the moment. GFSmith have a range called Extract made from recycled cups. They do a 25% student discount across their ranges:

Thank you. I also suggest Seawhite's recycled sketchbooks and paper. I'm also interested in plastic free art (no to PVA glue and acrylic paint then!) and cruelty free art -goodbye to sable brushes, any ink with shellac, all pigments with animal excretions (eg ivory black is a NO), and rabbit skin glue definitely a NO. Plastic free, wood free and cruelty free is a big ask. But its possible . I've done quite a bit of research for products that meet all three criteria if anyone would like a copy.
