Review on Strathmore 400 Series Tan Drawing STR-412-11 24 Sheet Toned Sketch Pad: High-Quality 11x14 Inch Artist Paper for Unique Artistic Creations by Amy Mcleod

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Beautiful colour, works well on a variety of mediums

In my art class this toned tan paper was used for charcoal portraits and still life ink and the results were good for both projects. The paper has a light texture that lends itself well to charcoal and was a forgiving surface for beginners - the erasers worked well without tearing the page. The paper would simply curl up due to ink washout when students layer heavily. I think it's pretty good considering it's more of a drawing paper. Sometimes we have to stretch the inventory over several projects.

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • So far so good
