Comments about Canson Classic Cream Drawing Pad:

I love using Classic Cream paper for sketching. It takes graphite pencil wonderfully well and allows for excellent detail. The paper has a very slight grain that adds elegance to the artwork and is very consistent from sheet to sheet. A welcome relief from the somewhat rough texture of most sketchbook papers. Five stars!

This heavyweight paper is ideal for pen and ink drawings. It's sturdy and takes erasures well. It claims to have a medium tooth surface, but it's much closer in qualifying for light tooth. My problem with this paper is that it's surface seems to have a slight sheen-like finish which somewhat prevents colored pencils from achieving a solid laydown and/or the layering of colors. It's almost like coloring on the back of posterboard. There are better values out there for dry media drawing pads.

Paper isn't bad at all; it holds its shape, doesn't warp or stretch, has a tougher than average surface, and has amazing consistency.
