Key Features To Look For

Paper Weight

The best drawing paper is the one that you feel confident using. The weight of the paper is how thick it is. Heavier paper is typically used for works with more layering or painting. The weight is how much 500 sheets of the paper would weigh, or how many grams per square meter it would weigh.

Different paper types are better for the various drawing mediums. If you’re working with a night scene, you might want to do a darker paper. Some people like using solvents or burnishing their art, so you should pick a paper that can properly absorb.

Fibre & Sizing

Think about the size of the paper you want. Paper for practicing is available in affordable, smaller sizes. Larger paper can fit a large portrait or landscape. If you’re used to smaller paper, then trying large paper sizes can be a great creative exercise where you’re filling the space with your brilliant work.

There are different types of fibers that paper can be made of. Some paper is made out of cotton. This paper is water absorbent and is good for.

Stretch

Rolls of paper can be stretched, while some notebook papers are more prone to tearing. For watercolor or acrylic painting, it’s important to stretch the paper so the paint absorbs the right way. There are notebooks, single sheets, and pads, so try out the different kinds and see which one works for you. You might want to use them individually for variation.

Bottom Line

This list of the best-colored pencil paper includes favorites from artists all over the world. It’s good to try new things, and these art supplies are a great addition to any artist’s toolbox or to give as a gift for someone who likes to draw.

When buying paper, keep in mind other uses for the paper you might want to do in addition to color pencils. Some types are good for painting or calligraphy as well as line drawing, while others are made to be used with color pencils. Getting a few kinds is a great idea especially if you’re using watercolor pencils or other materials to finish the art. We included recycled paper as well as traditional paper, so you can choose for yourself the texture and color of your art. Using new paper can be a small way to make a big change in the quality of your work. Be sure to practice with other mediums and stay inspired.
