Description
PAPER WEIGHT (120gsm): THIS IS A LIGHT-TO-MEDIUM WEIGHT SKETCHING PAPER. IT IS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR DRY MEDIA (PENCIL, GRAPHITE, CHARCOAL, CRAYON, PASTEL).
WET MEDIA LIMITATION: NOT SUITABLE FOR WATERCOLOURS, LIQUID ACRYLIC WASHES, OR HEAVY INK DIPPING. WET MEDIA WILL CAUSE 120gsm PAPER TO BUCKLE OR WARP. FOR WET MEDIA, USE A MINIMUM OF 300gsm WATERCOLOUR PAPER.
MARKER USAGE: ALCOHOL OR PERMANENT MARKERS MAY BLEED THROUGH 120gsm PAGES. USE AN ABSORBENT BACKING SHEET UNDERNEATH TO PROTECT SUBSEQUENT PAGES.

Its compact A4 format makes it easy to slip into a backpack or art folder, ensuring you always have a dedicated space to sketch, draft, and refine your ideas whenever inspiration strikes.
Ideal Applications & Compatible Media
- Graphite & Lead Pencils: Excellent tooth for shading, fine lines, and tonal work.
- Charcoal & Conté Crayon: Holds dry pigments smoothly for quick gesture drawings.
- Colored Pencils & Crayons: Ideal for vibrant sketching and layered dry color.
- Fineliners & Ballpoint Pens: Perfect for quick ink illustrations, diagrams, and note-taking.
Step-by-Step Usage & Best Practices
- Prepare Your Surface: Work on a clean, flat surface or hard drawing board to maintain paper stability.
- Protect Next Pages: When working with dark charcoal or heavy fineliners, slip a loose sheet of cardstock beneath your working page to prevent pressure marks or ink transfer to the next sheet.
- Erasing: Use a kneaded eraser or soft vinyl eraser to gently lift graphite without damaging the paper surface fibers.
- Fixing Charcoal/Pastel: If using loose charcoal or soft pastels, apply a light coat of workable fixative spray in a well-ventilated area to prevent smudging before closing the pad.
