Product Review: US Art Supply 9" x 12" Charcoal Paper Pad

I have had the opportunity to try a few of US Art Supply's products: paint brushes, acrylic paper pad, watercolor pad, and this charcoal paper pad.

Overall, I prefer the acrylic (which will be reviewed soon!) and watercolor paper pads over the charcoal pad. The paper works really well for charcoal and for colored pencils, but I dislike the binding on this pad. 

The watercolor pad was a lot easier to work with because the cover folded behind it and the acrylic pad is spiral bound and I feel like this pad would be improved if it followed suit.

Charcoal did not smear as easily on this pad as they would on generic paper, so I would definitely use it every time I use charcoal. This pad, like all of US Art Supply's other products, is very reasonably priced and it is great for practicing with different mediums.

I would recommend this product.
