Review on πŸ“ White Drawing Paper - School Smart Newsprint, 30 lb, 6 x 9 Inches, 500 Sheets (085590) by Gelin Battle

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good if you know what you're going to use it for

When I re-reviewed this product, it finally came down to an attractive price ($3.02!), but the vendor has changed. Please note this. The product is now listed as "Smart Drawing School Newsprint, 30lbs, 6" x 9", 500 Sheets". Still about half a cent per sheet. Great deal, I will buy again. At less than half a cent a sheet (I bought them for $2.32 + free shipping), this paper is hard to beat. Not the best option if you plan on painting them and then storing them for a long time or using a humid environment. If you use it for art at all, it's strictly for practice. Remember that this is newsprint. It will likely turn yellow and fade like newspaper. But I don't know exactly, I didn't wait that long to find out. Either way, there's something liberating about drawing on cheap paper that's about to expire. I'm not afraid of drawing badly and I don't freeze after I've finished a "good" drawing. Just keep drawing for the run, baby! Buy two of these and draw 3 pages a day and it'll cost you $5 for the whole year. Insane!
