Strathmore - Heavyweight Drawing Paper
Heavyweight Drawing Paper
Draw with confidence on paper built to handle endless erasing and rework
That extra weight makes a genuine difference when you're building up graphite layers or working charcoal into deep values. At 100 lb, Strathmore's Heavyweight Drawing paper stands up to aggressive erasing and reworking without pilling or breaking down, essential for drawings that require multiple passes to get the tones right. The cream color reduces glare during long sessions while providing warmth that complements graphite and charcoal particularly well.
Medium surface texture strikes the balance detailed work demands: enough tooth to grab dry media and build rich darks, but not so pronounced it dominates your mark-making. This texture helps create uniform mid-tones and natural-looking cross-hatching that doesn't read as mechanical or forced. Previously available only in sheets and rolls since 1940, this paper now comes in wire-bound pads offering the same quality in five convenient formats.
Acid-free construction ensures your finished drawings won't yellow or deteriorate. Each pad contains 24 sheets ready for pencil, colored pencil, charcoal, or sketching sticks, substantial enough for serious studies while remaining affordable enough for daily practice.
