Is that plaster, or some kind of clay?

[Sami]

I don't know if that exist in USA but it's cardbord "Canson" which we can pelling. After peeling it stay a foam.
I shall take a photo of this cardboard.

In the U.S. we call that material "foam core" and the article in your link actually calls it "foam core" (as well as featherboard), the first time I have seen Nouaillier use that term. Until now, I only suspected that is what it is. (The first time I read about Nouaillier and his materials was in an article Nick sent a few years ago.) -- Russ

Is the Foam Core "peeled" dry, or do you wet it down first?

[Sami]

Looks great. I love the black and white conversion (or is it sepia)? ......Allan

Thank's guys !
Allan, it's sepia conversion.

At the moment I realise some coffee bags with the foam core. I painted with acrylic Vallejo and oïl color.
I used evergreen for the pallet.
