Reminds me of Stonehenge!

I prefer colored pencil paper for fine drawings and it's always been Stonehenge! I started working with Stonehenge paper when I started painting human portraits, pet portraits and other drawings. Over the years I've bought other things and enjoyed trying other papers. But the paper in this notebook is really great! It's very similar to Stonehenge and Strathmore, which I've used at times. This paper has enough teeth to take multiple layers without rubbing the surface. I also like that it can work with an electric eraser and still put layers of crayons on top. I posted a picture of a painting called Flaming Girl by Leighton that I did on this Norberg & Linden paper. This paper also shows its strengths when drawing with pencil and blender. It really holds up and resists multiple mixing and layering. Of course, this is not suitable for liquid media such as watercolor paper or markers and therefore cannot absorb liquid. Save yourself serious marker and watercolor work for watercolor pads or thicker paper! This is great paper for drawing with pencils or crayons! It's also very valuable because you get two drawing pads! This is really good paper for all your sketching needs! It would also make a great gift for a sketch artist, fashion artist, anime and manga artist, or an aspiring artist who will be working pad by notebook! Highly recommended!
