Acrylic Pad Winsor & Newton 300 g/m², 27.9 x 35.6 cm, 15 sheets

Acrylic Pad Winsor & Newton 300 g/m², 27.9 x 35.6 cm, 15 sheets is a heavyweight paper pad designed for acrylic painting and mixed media. The 300 g/m² surface has a textured tooth that accepts heavy-bodied acrylics, gels and multiple layers without rapid buckling. With 15 sheets at 27.9 x 35.6 cm, the pad suits studies, sketches and finished works and is convenient for studio use or plein air sessions.

Advantages

The paper weight of 300 g/m² provides stability when applying wet layers and texture mediums. The textured surface offers controlled tooth for paint adhesion and layering. Sheets are pre-cut to portable dimensions that fit standard easels and sketchboxes. The pad format protects edges and keeps sheets flat when stored or transported.

Suitable for

• Acrylic painting with heavy-bodied paints and gels
• Mixed media studies combining acrylics and collage
• Outdoor painting and on-location sketches (plein air)
• Preliminary studies and finished small-format works

How to use

Work on a flat or slightly angled surface depending on the technique. Secure the sheet on an easel or drawing board if needed to reduce movement when applying heavy-bodied paint or texture mediums. Allow each wet layer to dry before applying subsequent layers to avoid uneven drying and potential surface disruption. For mixed media, use appropriate adhesives and allow full drying time between steps.

Usage recommendations

For best results with heavy-bodied acrylics, apply paint in thin to moderate layers and allow adequate drying between passes. When using water-heavy washes, mount the sheet to a rigid support or use a heavier backing to minimise buckling.
