Versatile Paper for Mixed Media

Paint’ON is particularly useful for artists who do not want to be restricted to a single medium. The 250gsm weight provides a sturdy working surface for layering and combining materials, while the smooth texture allows fine details and controlled marks.

Whether you are sketching with graphite, building up a pastel drawing, working with ink and markers, adding gouache or acrylic, or experimenting with combinations of media, Clairefontaine Paint’ON provides a versatile surface for creative exploration. The range of paper colours also allows artists to consider the colour of the paper itself as part of the artwork, from a bright white ground to dramatic black or softer natural and mineral tones.
