Art paper pad Herlitz 229401 20 sheets 130 g/m² 23x33 cm

The Herlitz art paper pad 229401 contains 20 sheets of 130 g/m² paper in a 23 x 33 cm format. The pad offers a smooth, consistent surface suited to drawing, sketching and light painting techniques. Sheets are glued at the top edge for easy removal, and the weight and texture of the paper are balanced to provide good opacity and minimal show-through when using pencils, charcoal, ink pens and light washes.

Advantages

This art paper pad combines a medium weight of 130 g/m² with a fine surface texture that supports precise line work and soft shading. The 23 x 33 cm format is compact yet large enough for detailed studies and finished sketches. With 20 sheets per pad and durable binding, the product is convenient for classroom use, individual practice sessions, or portable sketching. The paper’s construction reduces wrinkling from light wet media and gives predictable handling for layering and erasing.

Suitable for

• Graphite and colored pencil drawing
• Charcoal and pastel sketches
• Ink and fineliner illustrations
• Light watercolor washes and mixed-media studies
• Sketching, studies and portfolio pieces

How to use

Use the pad as a portable sketchbook or on a drawing board. For dry media such as pencils, charcoal and pen, work directly on the sheet and erase or layer as needed. For light wet techniques, apply washes sparingly and allow time to dry before additional layers to avoid excessive buckling. To remove a finished sheet, carefully detach it from the glued edge; for display or framing, mount the sheet on a backing board to prevent distortion.

Usage recommendations

Store the pad flat in a dry environment to preserve sheet flatness and prevent moisture absorption. When using water-based media, test a corner to confirm the paper’s handling, and consider using heavier-weight paper for extensive wet techniques.
