The first drawing in my new marker pad. Things I learned about this paper from additional sketches; My ink pens take longer to dry on this paper than in my moleskine sketchbooks. The paper does not bleed through at all either with ink pens or prismacolor markers. Since the paper is bright white, it can work with and against me and smudging of pencil depends on if I’m using the HB or 2B pencil. It’s too big for my scanner :( Overall, I like this paper! I have to trim it down to fit my scanner flat, or I can crinkle the edges to fit, but the paper gets wavy and lifts off the glass, resulting in a slightly blurry scan sometimes. I got myself two new prismacolor markers— mint cream and cream :D
