Paper as a serious medium
Large sheets, several layers and a piece carrying many hours of work show what mixed media on paper can do. Mixed media on paper is for sale in this price band for anyone who wants something with weight that still hangs lightly on a wall.
Shopping for paper in this bracket means looking at sheets that stand up next to canvas work. Heavy cotton rag can hold watercolor, collage and charcoal together. Often the paper itself becomes part of the design, torn, layered or folded. Large sheets in particular profit from a frame with a cardboard backing and a clean seal. That keeps dust out and supports the paper when a wall catches a draft. It also makes moving the piece later much easier.

Painting on the sheet
Painting on paper suits this range especially well, with color in the lead and paper fragments adding accents.
Frame and care
A sheet this size needs a sturdy frame with a gap to the glass. Non-glare museum glass shows the surface without reflections and filters UV light. Write down the measurements including the margin, so mat and frame can be planned cleanly.
