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

Perfect match for the watercolors I got my daughter. She loves this pad & well be buying more in the future.

I really like this pad, wether if Im in the mood to just use ink or pencil works fine and I can use watercolor, not too much water though and also both sizes of the paper are one...most of the time I use the back side of the paper for colored pencils, since is smoother... I dont have any complaints.

Love it

The paper doesnt bleed and that was super important for my daughter. Nice size, good quality.

I bought this for watercolor practice, but the paper is too thin. I took a gamble on the page weight, seeing that it was a bit more than what I use for pencil sketches. (And I had tested that paper beforehand but it wilted immediately.) The XL pad holds up a bit better, but only handles light washes. Anything with a waterbrush, for example, will definitely buckle the pages. I still carry it around and attempt paintings when Im out and about, thanks to the convenient size. Hopefully I can develop a drier technique to make it useful.

Good product

My favorite mixed media paper. Works well for whatever I dream up. Good size.

I dislike that the headline is ALL about this for watercolor and on the inside has its own reviews for different sketchbooks and how it is against different supplies and fir watercolor it only had 3 out of 6???

Love this notebook for the price and quality. The paper es thick and lightly textured. As it’s intended for mix media it doesn’t hold well heavy washes nor many pases of watery brushes or watercolors. Sharpies may bleed trough. It’s a paper to use for one side only.

It was able to accomodate different media.
