CLAIREFONTAINE PaintON PAD A4, 250G

Paint'ON is a highly versatile mixed-media paper designed to withstand almost anything. Its heavy 250 gsm weight makes it ideal for both dry and wet techniques, as it holds up well to moisture without easily buckling or warping. The paper is the perfect choice for artists who want to freely experiment and combine different media. Smooth: Excellent for fine drawing, ink work, markers, and calligraphy, as the surface does not obstruct the nib's movement.Black (Noir): Perfect for opaque media like gouache, acrylics, and white or metallic pens, which stand out beautifully against the dark background.Rough: The double-sided paper offers a coarser side for techniques requiring texture (like charcoal) and a smoother side for details. User Tips for Paint'ON Pads: Wet Media with Confidence: Although the paper is thick, when using a lot of water (e.g., for washes), it's a good idea to tape down the edges of the sheet to a board. This prevents even the slightest warping as the paper dries.Let Colours Shine on Black Paper: Try metallic watercolours or gouache on the black paper. The contrast is impressive and adds depth to the artwork.Prevent Marker Bleed: The smooth Paint'ON paper is excellent for alcohol markers because its dense surface prevents the ink from bleeding and soaking in too much, which saves your markers and keeps lines sharp.
