I discovered these beautiful cork and wood papers while researching Yupo, a synthetic paper that is tree-free, recyclable, and waterproof.  More about Yupo soon – this page is about the Cork and TImber papers that came in my box of samples from Legion.

Fine layers of cork and wood were laminated to paper creating a paperlike structure that retains the feel of its surface wood and cork.  I’m not sure how I’ll use these in my artwork but for now, I’ve created hi-res scans [click twice on thumbnails above] that could make wonderful layers for digital art.  (Feel free to grab and use these scans.)
