Hello there,

I am looking for paper samples that are good with color pencils and a lot of layering (specifically with Prismacolors).... I am willing to do custom ordering.

I am thinking of paper on the heavier side of its paperweight but am also willing to try out anything based on recommendations (I am learning more about paper as I go and it’s simply not enough to just learn about them without feeling it out!)..

In the future, I would like this paper to be available to work on a large to a grand scale. So I should be able to purchase a roll of 40” and over or in large-scale paper sheets. I am also interested to give boards a try? (So far the Legion Drawing & Framing and the Rising Museum Board caught my eye - but I want to make sure)!

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any advice and suggestions.
