Strathmore (580-72 500 Series Bristol, 2-Ply Plate Surface, 11"x14", White, 15 Sheets

Siply love this paper.

Although a bit pricey, it is nice paper. It doesn’t take light watercolor washes because the paper will ripple. Dry pencil techniques and pastels work best. I wish I could have gotten a smaller pad than the 11x14, though. Other sizes were not offered. Regardless, it is a good quality pad of Bristol. I do recommend the vellum for the colored pencil, graphite, and pastel artists.

Best, period.

This is the best board I have used. It is just expensive enough that I don't want to use it for trivial stuff, just quality work. It's a little harder to feed through my small printer, but is fine for hand work (lettering and line art). For standard, normal quality work the 300 series is adequate and a good value, though.

Every artist likes their own paper for their own reason. This paper for me has been the best so far for my graphic drawings. I like in thickness, it allows for erasing often. It allows for limited mixed media. I like to use some colored pencil with my graphite and it holds up to blending. It also frames well.

I love this paper so far Except,, I noticed the paper is warped! 😫😫😫

I use Micron and Gelly Roll pens on this paper. Its surface is extremely smooth and "hard", more so than the 300 and 400 series (which I've also used.) That keeps most of the ink on the surface of the paper, which gives it a great deal of visual 'pop'. As such, I'm extremely happy with the quality of the workmanship in the product; I just wish it came in a square (instead of rectangular) format.

This is perfect for color pencil. You can easily use cut back/scrape techniques with this.

A high quality paper for times when. a smooth paper is required. Preferred this plate surface iwhen aiming to do more detailed work with graphite or coloured pencil or if working with pen and ink. Would purchase again.

Bestes Papier was ich je benutzt habe! Ich benutze es für Farbstiftzeichnungen. Es ist das beste! Ein Traum! Alle Zeichnungen sehen sehr smooth aus.

Good quality

Um dos melhores papéis que já usei para desenho.

無事に届きましたが、一箇所にボールペンの先で突いたような凹みがあり、表紙と一枚目の本体の紙に凹みがあります、クレームとして返品も考えましたが、用紙の中央ではなく少し周辺に近いところだったので、今回は我慢して収めました。写真をご覧いただくとお分かりだと思います。用紙一枚だけのダメージでしたのと、用紙の縁から5cm程度のところでしたので、我慢して使用することにしました、アメリカから直送でしたが、梱包が簡略で薄いダンボール一枚の厚みの封筒に入って送られてきました。ボールペンのようなもので突いたような傷なので輸送中に尖った物にぶつかってできたものかと思います、今後気をつけていただきたいと思います。
