Drawing album SMLT 20 sheets A4 120 gsm, cover 130 gsm

SMLT 20-sheet A4 drawing album contains 120 gsm paper and a 130 gsm cover in a portable A4 format. The paper is suitable for dry media including graphite pencils, charcoal, colored pencils, pastel pencils and fine-line pens. The heavier 130 gsm cover adds protection for pages during transport and storage while keeping the album light enough for school, sketching sessions and on-the-go practice.

Advantages

The 120 gsm sheets provide a balanced tooth that accepts pencil and dry pastel while resisting tearing and excessive smudging. A4 sizing offers a familiar working area compatible with standard folders and portfolios. The 130 gsm cover increases durability and helps maintain flat pages without adding significant bulk. The album's sheet count allows multiple sketches or practice studies without frequent replacement.

How to use

Open the album and work on individual sheets as required. Use a range of dry media—graphite pencils, charcoal sticks, colored pencils or pastel pencils—keeping pressure appropriate to the paper weight to avoid indenting adjacent pages. For fragile media like charcoal or soft pastels, consider fixing the finished sheet with a suitable fixative before stacking pages or storing the album to reduce smudging. Remove completed pages carefully if needed or keep them in the album protected by the cover.

Usage recommendations

Store the album flat or upright in a protected place to avoid bending the cover. When carrying in a bag, place the album between flat items to reduce pressure on sketches. For long-term storage of finished works, use archival sleeves or mount the sheets on backing boards to avoid abrasion and maintain paper condition.
