The Canal Paper pad range features rag paper available in 5 beautiful colour variations (White - Warm White - Tan - Grey - Black) in a range of 4 unique sizes. Each of the 30 sheets exhibits a single torn leading edge which adds to the beauty of the pad and the surface of the paper has a subtle medium texture. It is perfect for any graphic medium including pencil, pastel and charcoal.  It gives an expressive feel and openness in the shadow tones and lines. Dark masses glow with the underlying texture allowing the core colour of the paper to shine through the marks.
