Pads & Blocks
Art pads are a economical way to practice on quality paper.
Pads are glued on one edge and blocks are glued on all four edges to hold the paper flat.
Choose cartridge paper with a slight surface texture for dry sketching or smooth hot press paper for fine line pens.
Cold pressed watercolour paper has a slight tooth that suits graphite, watercolour pencils and loose sketching with a fountain pen.
Rough watercolour paper suits pastels and expressive painting.
