Comments about Canson Mi-Teintes Drawing Papers:
I have using Canson Mi-Teintes for many many years. I find that this paper is my first choice for colored pencil and oil pastel. The selection of colors is incredible allowing for all sorts of color explorations. Over the years I have found the quality to be consistent from sheet to sheet. Canson Mi-Teintes has a special place in studio.

Comments about Canson Mi-Teintes Drawing Papers:
I am required to have this paper for my college major, as we use it for our portfolios. It is very attractive and easy to use. The price is reasonable for the amount of quantity. It was shipped very promptly and I didn't have to wait that long. I wish the product would be available already cut, as I have to have it a certain length, so it might have been easy to allow customers to indicate the size of paper they want and sell it pre-cut in different sizes.

Sturdy, quality drawing paper

Comments about Canson Mi-Teintes Drawing Papers:
I have used this paper for decades for pastels and charcoal drawings with great results. The paper is sturdy and heavier than some other brands, so you don't have to worry too much about bending or tearing. Holds up very well--one side is smooth, the other side textured. The greys, Blues, browns, and orange hues are great for figure drawing and portraits. Cheaper here than in my local store.

Best multi-media paper

Pros

Comments about Canson Mi-Teintes Drawing Papers:
I work on Canson Mi-Teintes primarily in charcoal and pastel, and also use it for pen and ink drawings. The tooth of this paper gives depth to drawing media as well as pastel. The colors are muted and don't interfere with the media. I choose the color I use by deciding how well it fits the subject and media. I am downsizing my work and the pads are easily carried with media to outdoor sites or locations away from the studio. Canson Mi-Teintes has been my paper of choice for over 40 years.
