Step one is the first draft – the sketch. You can improve your result by first planning your painting, by sketching out what you are going to paint and how you are going to paint it. To help you on your way, our range is full of different types of sketchpads that can be a starting point for almost any project.

If you use alcohol-based markers, a bleed proof marker pad is a perfect alternative. This type of paper does not absorb the colour, instead it has a glossy surface which means that the ink does not bleed through or out, which it can do if you use regular paper.

We also have watercolour pads with structure to bring out the fine details in the painting, hot-pressed, cold-pressed or rough.
Hot pressed paper has a completely smooth paper surface and is the same as satin, while paper with a coarser grain has a less smooth surface.
The thickness of a paper is always stated in grams per square meter. For example, if a paper is 80 grams, it means that a square meter of that paper would weigh that much. Normal printer paper is usually 80-100 grams. Watercolour paper, on the other hand, is usually 200 grams and above, as it must be able to hold more water and paint without the paper breaking.
