Tetis painting pad A3 15 sheets white — sketching and painting paper

Tetis painting pad A3 15 sheets white — sketching and painting paper provides a compact pack of uncoated, white sheets in A3 format designed for a range of dry and light-wash wet media. The pad contains 15 sheets sized to fit classroom easels, drawing boards or portable sketching setups. The surface is intended to accept pencil, charcoal, pastel, ink and watercolour washes without heavy buckling, making it suitable for preparatory studies, practice sketches and mixed-media exploration.

Advantages

The paper is uncoated and smooth enough for detailed pencil and ink work while retaining enough tooth for pastel and charcoal. Its A3 format balances working area and portability. A moderate weight and structure reduce excessive warping with light washes and quick painting sessions. The pack of 15 sheets offers a practical quantity for short courses, workshops or field sketches and the neutral white tone supports accurate colour assessment and clear line reproduction.

Suitable for

• Sketching with pencil, charcoal and graphite
• Ink drawing and pen illustrations
• Pastel and coloured pencil studies
• Light watercolour washes and mixed-media sketches
• Classroom exercises, art workshops and field studies

How to use

Place the pad on a flat surface, easel or drawing board. For pencil, ink and pastel work, use the sheet directly from the pad and secure edges with light tape if required. For light watercolour washes, apply moderate amounts of water and avoid prolonged soaking; allow sheets to dry flat to minimise cockling. Remove sheets carefully from the glued edge when finished, or detach individual pages before working to work on a single sheet independently.

Usage recommendations

Use the pad for short studies and practice sessions rather than for final, heavily layered watercolour paintings. For heavier wet techniques or archival work, consider using dedicated heavyweight or sized paper.
