Drawing Papers

Every artist has their own technique, style and preferred instruments. Each particular brand of paper has its own nuances that work differently with different techniques. It is up to the individual artist to choose the right substrate for their work.

Even papers that are described in a similar manner have slightly different characteristics, so it is important to experiment and discover what is best for your work.

While dozens of our papers are suitable for drawing of all kinds, we've taken the time to list the top 20 or so below. All are available in sheets, some in blocks, pads and rolls as well. Please feel free to contact us for more information.
