Strathmore 400 Series Mixed Media Paper, Black, Foldover Pad, 9x12 inches, 15 Sheets (184lb/300g) - Artist Paper for Adults and Students - Watercolor, Gouache, Graphite, Ink, Pencil, Marker

Love this paper. Works like the other colors of mixed media paper. The only downside: it tears easily when removing masking tape compared to the other colors of Strathmore mixed media paper. Strathmore mixed media papers are my go to. I tape down the paper to a board, and use gouache or watercolor. Even if i use heavy washes, the paper dries flat. I dint have to prewet the paper before I tape it.

This is GREAT paper for mixed media and gouache, not so much watercolor. Heavy weight prevents warping

This paper is so nice for stamping on and painting the image with watercolors. Much smoother than watercolor paper.

Great quality paper!

Great for mixed media, light weight and good quality. The only issue I seemed to find is when flipping the pages they would break off of the sketchbook. The tan paper was helpful with shading and coloring. Really good overall!

I e used a good deal of strathmore products and can’t wait to try my new pencils on this paper! And the different tones work well

I love the feel and texture of this paper. The grey color is outstanding. I'm looking forward to using metallic markers on it and some tracing of images I'm not really very good at sketching

It's Strathmore. Can't go wrong with this brand. If you aren't buying exotic papers, Strathmore is the way to go. Been using this brand for a very long time. This is a black pad of mixed media paper. I can't wait to play! It is thick so you can truly get it wet with your acrylics, water colors, etc. You can also use it for your charcoals and pencils. This is nice with charcoals. I have tried to go cheaper that offers mixed media paper in more pages per order. Most are not truly mixed media. Most are not thick enough to use wet mediums even though they say you can. If Strathmore says it's for mixed media, you can trust the info.
