## Description

From the manufacturer

Review: Perfect charcoal and white chalk companion - I've been converted to using Strathmore paper since last year. It really is a beautifully made paper, it is not too smooth and not too textured, very well balanced. It works so well with charcoal and white chalk, the drawings sort come "come out' by themselves. It is also affordable.
Review: Excellent - I love this format. Adding whites makes highlights sparkle. Watercolour pencil works surprisingly well, smudged with a damp finger not with a brush. The colour sings out but the paper doesn’t buckle unless you use too much water. The small size is just right for a quick scribble. I used cretacolour oil sketching pencils at first, brown on grey. But now am more with sepia inks.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: has anyone tried to watercolor on it?**
A: Yeah but watercolor works and looks best on white paper. Kind of odd on grey. But whatever works for you.

**Q: Is this grey paper dark, medium or ljght grey?**
A: Medium gray. Dark mediums still visible on this paper. White really pops on this paper ^^

**Q: Arw there 50 sheets or 22? Reviews said they only have 22 but description says 50.**
A: 50 is correct. Beware they sell also packages with paper sheets.

**Q: Can you use colored pencils on here**
A: This sketchbook is mainly for pencils and it's amazing with my prismacolors so yes 100%
