Review on πŸ“ Pacon Lightweight Drawing Paper, White 9x12 - 500 Sheets (4739): Premium Quality Art Paper for Sketching and More! by Dawn Fischer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Heavy paper is really good

I ordered 18" x 24" heavy paper and it's really good. The paper is thick and strong. The use of markers such as B. Marker, results in minimal or no bleeding. The paper has a different texture on each side. The tooth is larger on one side and more even on the other. I also tried my hand at watercolor painting on paper. This works for quick illustrations, although there is some distortion. Acrylic ink works very well. The paper is thicker and better quality than the Startmore 300 series notebook: https://www.amazon.com/Strathmore-350-114-STR-350-114-Sheet-Sketch/dp/B0027AE8FE. /Overall I highly recommend this paper for dry media as well as lighter weight wet media such as Ecoline watercolors and acrylics. For watercolors, use watercolor paper.

Pros
  • Light paper with medium tooth finish
Cons
  • Older model
