Great for pastels
I absolutely loved that there were different colors, the texture was perfect, the paper was easy to work with. You can tell it’s quality paper when you make a mistake and need to change something, the paper did not tear at all. Works great with pastel but also watercolor if you use clear Gesso on it first , a couple layers to give the paper some tooth and texture.

I have always loved this paper.
I know there are people saying that this paper is difficult to work with. It is NOT sanded and does not accept a lot of thick layers of pigment. If you are used to sanded papers you won’t like this paper out of the gate.However, if you work in thin layers you can build up beautiful detail. I am doing a study on a Shih Tzu face. I’m using pan pastel for the under painting and Stabilo Carbothello pastel pencils. I’m getting lovely detail and color mixing. I’ve used Brush&Pencil workable fixative once so far, before adding some white hairs and reinforcing some highlights in the fur. I’m halfway down the face and I can still see the paper texture through my pigment so I know I’ve got lots of tooth left.If you’re new to pastels and want a paper that won’t break the bank, this is an excellent choice. I’ve always been a Strathmore fan and I also recommend their 500 Series Charcoal Paper.You can master this paper, it just requires some planning ahead.
