Clairefontaine Paint On Green Grey Pads are made within the Clairefontaine Paper Mill in Meurthe, France. The pads contain 30 pages of long natural unbleached virgin fibres,  making this paper 100% natural and biodegradable. It is also PEFC certified from sourced, recyclable materials so it is very eco-friendly and has unique mechanical strength and flexibility. The sheets are pH neutral and acid-free. Each page is 250gsm and is great for charcoal, pencils and all mixed-media as it retains pigments well. It is a very resistant paper and can also be used for wet techniques such as acrylic and gouache. The paper is Green Grey in colour and smooth with a slight texture, similar to cartridge paper.

The Clairefontaine Paint On Pad is cut-edge which provides a clean edge to the paper. The cover is paperback with a cardboard back to provide a harder surface to work on. The bind is glued in and produces a straight edge when ripped out of the pad; it can also open-flat. The book isn't too thick and it’s ideal for artists of all abilities.

We recommend that this pad is perfect for mixed-media techniques and works especially well with charcoal and pens. Because it is 250gsm it is a thick weight and can easily be used for wet techniques such as acrylic because it is a very resistant paper that has been designed for all sorts of mediums. We would suggest any medium, however pens, pencils, charcoal and other sketching materials will work best on this surface.
