Title: It holds the charcoal well
Review: This paper is excellent because it has the right amount of tooth needed to hold the charcoal; that is, the charcoal dust. The texture of this paper, the brand Strathmore’s quality is unparalleled.

Title: STRATHMORE CHARCOAL PAPER
Review: This one of the companies the supply store sold at Mass College Art years ago, along with Windsor Newton. I have found both companies to be reliable and consistent. The only reason for changing would be if one wanted a leather or vegan bound book to sketch but I have yet to find one that has appropriate paper.

Title: Awesome paper, awesome texture..
Review: This paper is awesome, the texture creates little "rectangles" in the pattern than do 3 things: (a) the extruded bumps "catch" the medium so the texture helps to get charcoal, etc. on the paper, and (b) the impressed bumps make little "wells" that hold bits of charcoal so erasing can be done in stages (it doesn't all just lift up at once), and most importantly (c) the raised/lowered pattern creates a "maximum resolution" of detail so you don't get too lost in infinitely small details..The pattern also helps to keep the image uniform, like a picture reduced to some max resolution on a computer. This helps to make everything "even" and prevents you from getting lost in tiny details, and even large areas tend to look "pixellated" at the same level.I'm attaching a picture of a dog portrait that shows how the pattern helps to create a photo-like appearance, from far back it looks like a real picture, and up close you can see the uniform sampling rate caused by the pattern. It's also just classy looking, like canvas...I only use this for special finished pieces, no sketching...I wish they made a gray version of the textured paper, but that's no big deal..
