The best type of papers for Charcoal drawings require papers with the ability to hold up to numerous layers and durable enough to withstand erasing without the fibers pilling. They should have a toothed surface texture like a vellum paper.

Stonehenge, Lenox and Rising Drawing & Framing are three excellent papers for charcoal drawing. All three papers are 100% cotton, ph neutral and have excellent durability. These three papers come in sheets, pads and rolls. Both Lenox and Legion Drawing & Framing are offered in oversized rolls for artists looking to work BIG. The textures allow for many layers of charcoal and excellent blending properties.
