Paper for Sketching and Drawing
With selections available for both home and studio use as well as sketchbooks small enough to take anywhere, there are plenty of choices when it comes to drawing paper and pads. Choose from rolls of sketch paper, large sheets of drawing paper on a pad or a hardbound or spiral-bound sketch pad that accepts a variety of mediums, from pencil to charcoal to ink. Choose drawing paper or a drawing pad durable enough to accept the medium you want.
Tracing Paper, Vellum Paper and Bond Paper
Frequently used by both artists and architects, as well as other design professionals, tracing paper, vellum paper and bond paper each have properties that work well for different purposes. Look for a paper choice that will accept a variety of drawing mediums, or consider the level of transparency, if the paper is to be used to help you refine a drawing or transfer it from another page. Consider gridded bond paper that can withstand repeated erasing without smudging or ghosting.
