This is my go-to paper for my drawing students and for practicing Sumi-e painting. I use it during my workshops too. Students really love it! Highly recommended.

This paper was recommended by online art course for practice, and it was good value. It is useful for practice watercolour and sketching.

Si vous souhaitez vous serait it de ces feuilles pour des activités artistiques, sachez que l’emballage déplorable (simplement plastifié puis mis dans un carton trop grand ) risque de causer des dégâts…le paquet est très lourd, l’emballage devrait en tenir compte…Sinon, ne connaissant pas ce papier au préalable, je ne sais dire comment il se compare par rapport à d’autres provenance. Je ne m’attendais pas ceci dit à un papier aussi lourd épais.

I keep buying art paper for my daughter that claims to be thick but ends up being flimsy, and finally I found this paper that is actually great quality! It's really thick and a nice white color! She can finally draw and paint without the paper crinkling up and bleeding right through instantly.

Gets used all the time in schools, and is generally really good for drawing. A little heavy for folding, though, and the ream is not cut perfectly. Some pages are a little longer than others.

I wasn't sure about this paper without being able to feel it first.... The price convinced me to try it, and I am very happy. I am using pen and ink with highlighters, mostly doodling for fun and relaxation, and this paper holds up to everything so far. There is very little show through on the backside and erasing doesn't seem to damage it. Like I already mentioned, the price is impressive, as well. Highly recommend.

This substantial 80 lb. paper is great for artists of all ages as it will tolerate a lot of water-based art supplies. Yes, it will wrinkle somewhat but the heavyweight, crinkly feel of it is very enjoyable and there is such a very generous amount of paper that after spending hours painting with watercolors with my granddaughter I grabbed a handful to take home with me. The paper comes in a loose pack, so you will need to get some sort of plastic bin or box to keep it in.

I really like this paper. It's nice and thick. My kids draw all the time and we use a lot of it. It's good for markers (doesn't soak through), and you can even use it for paint.

I'm not a seasoned or experience artist, though I've been drawing and playing with watercolors for several years. I wanted to get a good volume of paper because I want to get more serious about practicing my art, and this seemed like an excellent value.So far I'm very pleased. For 500 sheets of 80 lb paper, this is an absolute steal. The paper has a small amount of texture and has been a pleasure to work with. I've done pencil sketches, colored pencils, pastels (which I don't use very much but I wanted to give them a try for a simple value study exercise) and I even did a bit of light wet work with water soluble graphite.Excellent results so far, and I've got quite a bit of paper to keep me busy. The paper of course buckled just a bit with the use of the wash for the graphite, but not too bad - I purposely kept it light. (this was not a background wash, but I used a damp brush to fill out the details of a tree I'd drawn - I primarily wanted to see how the paper worked with a bit of moisture).Anyway, if you are a more experienced artist you will likely be more picky than I am, but this is a tremendous value and it gives me a huge stack of quality paper to practice my skills - which is a great feeling.I think Sax's drawing paper goes up to 90 lb, and I might try that next time, which was only a few dollars more. But regardless, I think this is excellent paper.EDIT: I just wanted to add that over the weekend I was experimenting with some water soluble graphite sticks I purchased, and did some drawings with background washes. These were not as heavy as a watercolor wash, but still, a good portion of the paper was wet at one time or another. Yes, the paper will curl, but after it dried for a few minutes I put a drawing pad on the picture and weighed it down a bit. The result is not completely flat, but acceptable. So, in my opinion, this paper can take a reasonable amount of wet media, but you then need to flatten it out either as it dries or afterward.
