Artgecko Pro Mixed Media Sketch Pad A4-40 Sheets 150gsm White Cartridge Paper

I bought this specifically because it was smoother than 'standard' textured watercolour paper and better suited for my needs with a youth group who were using various mediums. Paper is really nice quality, thick and doesn't wrinkle up much when being used. I noticed one review saying it broke up easily but that was not my experience at all, this paper was resilient and didn't deteriorate at all when using Brusho powders with lots of water, watercolours and w/c pencils. The price also made it attractive. it's also really white, rather than many I've seen which were creamy in colour. I've been so pleased, I have bought more and some A3. As always, it depends on what your needs and preferences are!

Wow perfect for price

OverviewI have a number of art gecko products and generally happy with them but couldnt get on with this.PositivesGood, thick paper at a decent price.NegativesVery shiny and didnt suit my use of Windsor and Newton or Ohuhu markers.Probably better suited to Posca pens or similar but as I don't use them will pass on to a friend as it would be a pity to waste it..

Pleasure to work with , thick and substantial , would buy again.

Fabulous quality would highly recommend for water colour painting

Good quality and value .

Use it to print on and for drawing. It’s good. I will repeat purchase.

Works well with posca pens

These are just A5 300gsm watercolour cards, no lines on the back to indicate Postcard. I had to draw them in 😞
