UCREATEMixed Media Art Paper, Heavyweight, 9" x 12", 500 Sheets

This is thicker than your ordinary printer paper, but not as thick as great quality art paper, so it is perfect for stepped up kids art (less squiggles on page toddler art, more actual art you might hang on the fridge). You also get a lot of paper for a great price. My now teen uses this for sketching, drawing, and planning out artwork they might try on her more expensive higher quality paper. This has been used with watercolors to try some things out, but it is not as thick as true watercolor paper.

This is fantastic mixed media paper! I have two young artists who go through ten pages at a time each when they are creating. This is an uneatable bargain, considering the quality and quantity of the paper. I used to have to buy them new sketchpads so often, but this is my new go-to paper for my girls. 100% will buy again once we're done.UPDATE: I've purchased this pack twice now and am about to get a third. My two elementary school artists love this paper and fly through it at an insane rate! They've used: watercolors, tempera, gel crayons, regular crayons, markers, gel pens....all with great success. This is becoming a household staple for us.

The paper is good for pencil, charcoal and the like, but I tried watercolor on it and it did NOT work. It’s not advertised as watercolor paper, so I’m not disappointed.

clean surface, decently smooth, and durably thick! takes india ink, alcohol markers, different paints, pencils, very well!I can get a fair amount of water on the paper before it starts to warp. for that reason i probably wouldn't recommend watercolor unless you're really confidant.i don't use much chalk or pastels so i dont know how smoothly it does with that, but hey! I've been impressed so far. this was just what i needed. a fat stack of dependable paper.

My 7 year old artist loves this paper for markers, oil pastels, pen, and colored pencil drawings. I bought it when I realized she'd be having her 1st grade year remote. We normally go through pricier pads of drawing paper quickly so this was a great deal for us. I did some drawing on it as well with colored pencil and was pleased with the quality. It's comparable in thickness to construction paper but has a more satisfying smoothness to it for markers. It does have a slight "tooth" but I'd classify it as a smooth paper.

The paper feels like as a type of construction paper, not too thin or thick for folding. Smooth as copy paper, good for pen or pencil drawing. I was hoping it would work as watercolor paper, but turnout not so good. It can’t soaked up much water, but if you use little water, it dry so fast, so you can see the water trails, hard to do wet on wet. Doesn’t spread the paint. I won’t use it for watercolor painting anymore. Overalls I’d say it worth the money.

My 12 year old son draws as a hobby and is constantly asking for supplies. He recently ran out of his Pacon U-Create 50-page pack that I had bought in twos (so he had 100 pages). I looked for Pacon paper here on Amazon and let him know I ordered him just one 50-page pack instead of two. He was a bit disappointed, but I told him I'd buy another later.Well imagine both of our shock when this came in the mail! No...I did not order a 50-page pack. I ordered a 500 page pack!! I didn't even realize this. He is so happy.The reason I went with Pacon is because this is some high-quality paper. It's sturdy, not too thin and not too thick. He can use anything on it from pencils to markers, to his acrylic paint pens.And because of my happy mistake, I won't have a need to order any more for a long time!

Our kids request this plain, solid weight paper again and again. Highly recommend.

I'm an art teacher. This paper was my best purchase this year. It is heavy enough to do marker art, paint, glue, all kinds of mixed media, yet cheap enough that I don't have to worry so much about waste. It has lasted a long time with a lot of students. Please don't change the price, I want to buy it again next school year.

Da bestellt man für teures Geld ein Mixed Media Papier und es wird in einer simplen, labberigen, überdies noch zerrissenen Plastikfolie geliefert! Sowas geht gar nicht lieber Verkäufer!!! Bei dem Preis sollte ein Karton als Umverpackung wohl drin sein! Zum Glück regnete es gerade mal nicht, als der Amazon Bote das Papier vorbeibrachte und vor der Haustür abstellte. So waren nur ca. 20 Blatt verschmutzt oder an den Ecken angeknickt. Das Papier selbst erfüllt seinen Zweck und ist ok.

Massive block of good quality paper was so surprised when it arrived! Can't wait to start using it

Came nicely shrink wrapped. Sketchbook grade fine-tooth mixed media paper for budding artists. Feels thinner than the Canson or Artist's Loft Mixed Media papers. Takes acrylic and some watercolour (doesn't lift well but I didn't expect it to). I use these as sketchbook papers. It warps slightly, but I don't mind warp in my sketchbooks/art journals, it adds to the charm.

Bought this stuff for bookbinding, it holds up nicely for that use, texture is about what you get in hard-cover novels so basically perfect for the job. Holds up to heavy markers and dark ink with zero bleed-though as well.
