The Strathmore 400 Series Assorted Tints Artagain Drawing Pad 12" x 18" is a drawing pad made for artists who love contrast and want to work on a tonal surface with real character. The paper changes the entire feel of a drawing: light becomes more dramatic, colors appear richer, and every mark feels more intentional.
The Artagain paper features a medium texture that holds media beautifully without overwhelming it. It is ideal for soft pastel, charcoal, colored pencil, and gel pens, allowing clean lines, smooth tonal transitions, and rich color payoff.
Its larger format makes it especially suitable for larger compositions, portraits, dramatic lighting studies, and drawings that need room to breathe. It supports both detail and broader movement while keeping the striking effect of the black background.
The paper is fiber-enhanced for added durability and stability while working. It also contains 30% post-consumer fiber, making it a more environmentally conscious choice without sacrificing performance. It is also acid free, helping preserve artwork over time.
As part of the Strathmore 400 Series (Best), it is designed for artists who want dependable quality, strong performance, and a surface with real visual impact.
