Product Description

Canson, the experts in paper production, has been delivering fine art surfaces to the world’s master artists since 1557. Located in the South of France, the artisans continue their craft, relying on generations of knowledge enhanced with superior technology. The Canson XL Series brings this legacy in an accessible form for art students, art hobbyists and beginners. Featuring a wide range of paper for many techniques, Canson XL includes sketching, drawing, mixed media, bristol, palette paper, newsprint, watercolor, acrylic painting, oil painting paper and more! Pads are available in popular sizes like 9x12 inch and 11x14 inch. Some paper types even feature more than five different sizes and multiple configurations, with wired binding or glue binding, depending on preference. Mixed Media paper is specifically configured as a medium grain paper with heavy sizing for wet and dry media. Each sheet erases well and blends easily. The wired pads have micro-perforated true-to-size sheets for easy removal. Mixed Media is also available in an even heavier weight, rough sheet, and in a gray or neutral toned page for unique effects. All paper is acid-free, meaning the surface will not become yellow or brittle over time, leading to premature aging and eventual deterioration of the paper. Artists prefer acid-free paper to ensure their artwork is preserved for generations. The Canson XL Series has been loved by art teachers and art students for decades, because of quality paper, high sheet counts and great price points. Every artist knows XL!

    Customers like the art media paper. They mention it's versatile, able to handle many forms of art, and is perfect for multimedia pieces. The paper is a bit rough, which is good for mixed media, and smooth, but not too smooth, making it versatile. The 98-lb paper is perfect to layer in various mediums, and the sketchbooks are amazing. They're great for ideas, doodling, and less important artwork.

    "...I highly recommend this art book, could be used for journaling if you so wish, I write my poems and thoughts after I decorate it with my artwork...." Read more

    Customers are mixed about the durability of the art media paper. Some mention that it does not tear when erasing or pressing down hard, nor has the paper crumbled. However, others say that the paper buckles some when holding graphite pencils and gouache, and the free edge will buckle a fair bit when too wet.

    "...This paper is capable of holding watercolor but will buckle when too wet, works well with gouache as well. Fantastic for fine liners and pencils...." Read more

    "...Paper does not tear when erasing or pressing down hard (which I do when writing or drawing) I really love the fact permanent markers and paints do..." Read more

    Customers are mixed about the color of the paper. Some mention it's great for water colors, taking watercolor like a champ. However, others say that it'd be better not to use it with water colors and that the color doesn't spread very nicely.

    "...has pages that can easily be torn out, paper is thick and can be used with water colors, paints, permanent markers and it doesn’t bleed through...." Read more

    "...’s not rough or heavy enough for watercolor or paints but it’s great for pen & marker. It would work for ink...." Read more

    "...This shouldnt be used with watercolor. I don't even really think you should use markers...." Read more

    Covers much thinner than previous version
    4 Stars
    Covers much thinner than previous version
    This is a new version of the sketchpad and the only difference I can tell is the front and back covers are much thinner and less sturdy than the old version. The new version is not supportive enough for sketching with out using another hard surface underneath. When it comes time to get a new pad I will look for another brand with more sturdy covers. In pic above the old version is in front and the new in back, there is a noticeable difference.

    Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2022
    I'm a watercolor artist and I tend to spend weeks on artworks so I like having sketchbooks around for quick things. Personally I wouldnt use this for the artworks I plan to sell but its wonderful for personal use.

    This paper is capable of holding watercolor but will buckle when too wet, works well with gouache as well. Fantastic for fine liners and pencils. You'll need a backing for markers, as they bleed through. I did manage to get acrylic to dry on this paper without cracking or peeling but only 1 layer and I'm not experienced enough with acrylic to tell you whether you could layer it more or not.

    Overall if you're looking for a sketchbook to put art in, this definitely does the job! You absolutely get your money's worth with this product ♡

    Primero se lo compre a mi hijo y después uno para mí. Pinto con colores y la hoja resiste bien sin que se ponga fea o se desgaste. Mi hijo lo usa con plumones y aunque traspasa un poco, la hoja no se corruga ni se ablanda, solo basta con poner un cartoncillo para que no traspase a la siguiente hoja.
