Canson Mi-Teintes Velvet Pads grant you the freedom to create without being limited by what your paper can handle. Available in a range of cool and natural tones, these pads each contain 12 sheets of 264 lb (430 gsm) paper with a velvet-soft finish that showcases the brilliance of pastel pigments and retains their vibrance for years to come.
The smooth, velvety surface lends itself well to precise, highly detailed pastel strokes, and you won’t need a fixative in order to achieve the stunning depth and luminosity of multiple color overlays. This acid-free, archival-quality paper is also internally and externally sized to accommodate a variety of wet techniques, further freeing you to explore new styles of artistic expression. It’s perfect for art students and professionals alike.
