Textured, Heavyweight Paper for Oil Pastel and Mixed Media Excellence
SoHo Urban Artist Oil Pastel Pads are crafted for artists who want a paper surface that truly enhances the performance of oil pastels. Each 140 lb. (300 gsm) sheet features a fine, woven canvas-like texture that holds pigment beautifully—similar in feel to sanded pastel paper—allowing for smooth application, strong color adhesion, and vibrant results.
The heavyweight paper resists warping and tearing, even with wet blending or heavy layering. Each sheet is interleaved with protective glassine to safeguard your work from smudging, making this pad ideal for studio use or travel. In addition to oil pastels, this versatile surface supports a variety of media, including watercolor, colored pencil, pen and ink, graphite, and charcoal.
