The Strathmore has discovered an unmet need for all artists which is not only suitable for sketching and drawing with light & dark media, but that can also stand up to wet media applications 

Strathmore 400 Series Toned Mixed Media Paper provides a great way to track progress over time in a convenient and transportable pad. It contains a heavyweight sketch paper pad in a black color perfect for use with both light and dark media. It combines characteristics of a watercolour paper and the finish of a drawing sheet, creating a paper that performs for all wet and dry media. It's the perfect hybrid of two most loved papers: 400 Series Toned Sketch and 400 Series Mixed Media.

The paper is acid free at 184lb (300 GSM), in black color which is 100% recycled and contains 30% post-consumer fiber. It has a medium drawing surface great for colored pencils, pastel, charcoal, pen and ink, watercolor, gouache, acrylic, graphite, and more. It is Perfect for Finished Artwork which comes with flip over cover features sheets that stay in the pad yet tear out cleanly.
