Canson Graduate Black Drawing Pad, Foldover, 9x12 inch, 20 Sheets | Artist Paper for Adults and Students - Drawing, Sketching and Art Journaling

I do like the quality of the paper. I like peities paper better only because it comes in different shades.

my daughter loves to draw. unfortunately most of these inexpensive drawing pads are either really thin and tear easily, or too hard to pull out and rip.this one is a good balance. the sheets are heavy enough to hold up to her repeated erasing as well as being easily pulled out to display her finished masterpiece. we've tried using a few different mediums on it to make sure its a solid performer and it handles them all great. it works well for the oil pastels, colored pencils, charcoal, and markers as well. at this price i think its a great choice for anyone looking for a drawing pad.

I bought this paper back in early September for a course and never needed it until this past week. Unfortunately, my return date has passed and I am stuck with it. As you can see from the attached photo, there is a vertical crease in the paper that pretty much destroys my drawing. Check your paper when you get it because every single sheet is bad.

The Canson Graduate Drawing Pad paper is relatively white and delicate, it be suitable for artists who prefer a bright white or more textured surface to work on. It thickness is good as sketch paper, but the paper is not good for the wet media, the thickness is perfect for the color pencil multi-layer stacking. The white is easy color on and smooth surface is easy to erase. Furthermore, I would like to emphasize that the preference for paper thickness and texture is subjective and varies from artist to artist. Some may prefer a thinner paper for their work, while others may prefer a thicker, more sturdy surface. It ultimately depends on personal preference and the specific medium being used.

My wife absolutely loves this sketchbook! The brand is very reputable and is known really well in the art world. She likes to sketch and paint, and she had no problem using this with her watercolors. Definitely would recommend!

Love the size, the paper is amazing for pencil drawing and I’ve just tried out charcoal, it took to the paper great. Paper held up pretty good to erasing, paper started to fray after the third erase in the same spot. I use this with mechanical pencils, the paper has good grain, not too much.Overall it is great quality paper, only 30 pages but worth it to me, I’d recommend to other artists.

I love this drawing pad. Its cover flips open all the way and stays there, and the pages are nice and thick with a smooth, dense feel. I use it for doing pencil sketches around the house and it's really easy to use and perfect for getting visual thoughts down on paper.

The only page that did not have a crease line going down the entire page was the first page.

The papers were damaged, made my portfolio look unprofessional
