The Van Gogh pastel paper is an excellent choice for anyone who wants to work with dry materials such as pastel, charcoal and chalk.
This pastel paper has a slightly textured surface, which allows pigment to stay put and allows you to easily build up multiple layers. This allows you to work with soft gradients, deep contrasts and detailed highlights.
The block contains 30 sheets in A4 size in an off-white shade. This soft, neutral colour makes an ideal base for your drawing: it is less harsh than pure white and creates a more natural look. Colours come across warmer and more balanced as a result, while both light and dark accents remain clearly visible. Looking for more space for larger compositions? Then also check out our Van Gogh Pastel Paper A3.
With a weight of 160 g/m², the paper offers enough strength to apply multiple layers without quickly damaging. At the same time, it remains flexible and pleasant to use. The sheets are glued on one side.
The Van Gogh pastel paper is an accessible and reliable choice for artists who want to learn to work with pastels or further develop their technique.
