Strathmore 400 Series Sketch Pad, Recycled, Toned Gray, Side Wire Binding, 50 Sheet, 9x12 inch, 1 Count

I use these toned Strathmore Sketch pads for charcoal and pastel studies. They are the perfect quality and tone for both portrait and landscape and I would recommend them.

Great paper to use with graphite and charcoal pencils. Glad Walmart carries these art supplies that are often hard to find in Art Supply Stores.

trying to build up my drawing skills and often toned paper gives the most dramatic results if drawing glass, or 3d. effects like water

I LOVE my new Grey Toned Paper and can't wait to draw something on it!

Nice paper when a grey toned paper is what you need.

this toned grey paper, is absolutely the best for black and or white charcoal, blends smoothly.

Really good, good quality

Tan gives a new inspiration and look to my drawings. I recommend all the tinted paper to give a different look to my drawings.

For a variety of sketchbook choices this is a good one. I love drawing especially with ink on the gray background.

Purchased to use with pastels. This paper is lighter weight than what I've been using but it does a good job in "holding" chalk-style pastels (I've attached an example). It has serration but the paper doesn't tear out as easily as I would expect partially because of how lightweight the sheet itself is. The paper can be cut cleanly with scissors (the drawing is on a half sheet).
