Use this paper for observational sketches, composition studies or working drawings, building the image gradually so you can judge the balance of light and dark. For printmakers, drawing is also a useful stage for deciding which areas of a design will remain and which will be cut away.<\/p>\n<h3>Working with this product<\/h3>\n<p>Begin with light marks, then develop the lines and tones that matter most. Place a spare sheet under your working hand to reduce smudging, and test unfamiliar pencils or pens on a small area first. When preparing artwork for a block, remember that the printed impression reverses the design; lettering needs particular care. Keep preliminary sketches so you can compare alternatives before transferring the final image.<\/p>\n<h3>Choosing and using this format<\/h3>\n<p>Choose this format around the scale and number of drawings you plan to make. A larger sheet gives you room to explore a full composition; it can also be divided into smaller studies before use. Keep the stated paper weight in mind when comparing options in the Accademia range. For a consistent series, use the same paper format and leave similar borders around each drawing.<\/p>\n<h3>Product details<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Size: A5 &#8211; 148x210mm (each)<\/li>\n<li>Paper weight: 120 gsm<\/li>\n<li>Paper format: Pad<\/li>\n<li>Suitable for: Drawing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Care and storage<\/h3>\n<p>Keep finished work away from damp conditions and direct sunlight. Label your studies with the date and materials used. Keep a clean reference sample for future comparisons. Check the selected size before ordering. Handle the surface with clean, dry hands. Keep your tools organised between working sessions. Compare samples under consistent lighting. Plan your composition before starting.<\/p>\n<h3>Helpful guides<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hickmandesign.co.uk\/resources\/printmaking-guides\/lino-printing-process\/designing-your-lino-print\/\">Designing your lino print<\/a> &middot; <a href=\"https:\/\/hickmandesign.co.uk\/blog\/tips\/paper-weights-and-printmaking\/\">Understanding paper weights<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<ul>\n<li>Size: A5 &#8211; 148x210mm (each)<\/li>\n<li>Paper weight: 120 gsm<\/li>\n<li>Paper format: Pad<\/li>\n<li>Suitable for: Drawing<\/li>\n<li>For drawing studies and composition planning<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":22479,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[191,163,188,80,63,81,83,153],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-34011","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-a5-paper-sketchbooks","product_cat-art-papers","product_cat-black-friday-art-supplies","product_cat-lino-printing-supplies","product_cat-equipment","product_cat-screen-printing-supplies","product_cat-sketchbooks","product_cat-woodblock-printing-tools-supplies","pa_brands-fabriano","first","instock","sale","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 -
