Heavy paper · loose-leaf

For the work that needs real water.

When the cream sketchbook can't take what you're putting on it, our pads can. Italian-milled, 25% cotton, FSC-certified, 300 gsm — the heavy paper for watercolor, mixed media, and ink wash that the sketchbooks were never built for.

Why Italian paper

The pad we use to test what the sketchbook can't.

Our paper pads are made from 25% cotton stock, milled in Italy, FSC-certified at the source. It's the paper Teresa uses for her watercolor work — the one she sources because it stays flat under a heavy wash and pulls a crisp pencil line.

Where the cream sketchbook is the daily-driver paper for ink and pencil, the pads are the answer when you want to push pigment, stack washes, or work mixed media that would buckle a 120-gsm page. Same brand, different jobs.
