What does this sketchbook do and when do you need it?
This CANSON GRADUATE MIXED MEDIA sketchbook has been specially developed for mixed media techniques, allowing you to combine various materials such as pencil, charcoal, pastel, ink or watercolour. The A3 format offers ample space for extensive sketches and studies, making it ideal for artists who experiment with different drawing techniques.

Why this A3 format is the right choice
The A3 format gives you the freedom to create large-scale sketches without being restricted by space. With 30 sheets, you have enough paper for an extended period of creative work. The short side is glued, which means you can handle the block easily and tear off sheets neatly without damaging the paper underneath.

Double-sided paper with different textures
What makes this sketchbook special is that each sheet can be used on both sides: one side has a textured surface and the other side is smooth. This gives you the flexibility to choose the most suitable texture for each technique. The paper has a weight of 220 grams per square metre, making it sturdy enough for various media without bleeding through.

Practical tip for optimal use
This paper is acid-free and resistant, which means your artworks won't discolour or deteriorate over time. First test on a small piece of paper which side works best for your specific technique - the textured side holds dry media such as charcoal better, while the smooth side is more suitable for detailed linework.
