Canson XL Series Mix Paper Pad, Heavyweight, Fine Texture, Heavy Sizing for Wet or Dry Media, Side Wire Bound, 98 Pound, 5.5 x 8.5 in, 60 Sheets, 5.5X8.5

The best paper I love doing watercolor on this paper but not so good with markers.

This book is alright, but not good for watercolor. Going to save it for sketching and scrap paper.

I’ve tried a variety of sketchbooks. This is my favorite, and I’m sticking with it. You can paint, draw, use markers, etc. It’s thick enough. The perforated edge is sturdy. If you mostly use watercolors, then choose a watercolor book. I prefer the 9x12. Fits neatly in my backpack.

HUGE! I guess I didnt pay attention to what the actual size is. Im in happy land.

I ordered the 18x34 and as you can see next to water bottle and my other 11x14 this thing is huge, it’s bigger in person, it’s very nice and the cover is very soft. Had to do my research for a good big sketch pad and with good paper. This is the one, didn’t believe it when other artists said it was among one of best they have used, especially for fine art drawings. Worth it.

The quality of the paper is really good. White paper minimal texture, good thickness, no bleeding threw to the other side.

Good

Nice quality paper

I personally love the Canson XL mixed media pads. I use them a lot when painting (acrylic) when i dont feel like using an actual canvas. I think they are decently priced and versatile for artists.

Kids Love it and it dries up relatively fast
