Go big or go home, says the Kookaburra. The Art Spectrum Mixed Media Spiral Pad A3+ gives you 30 large sheets of 250gsm European mixed media paper, acid free and FSC certified, ready for wet and dry media.

A3+ is where mixed media gets fun. There is room to swing a big brush, tear and layer collage, and still leave space for drawing on top.

★ Art Shed Staff Tip
Use the big sheet to loosen up. Stand up, hold your brush or pen near the end of the handle, and work from the shoulder. Big paper rewards big marks, and you will be surprised how much freer your work looks.

We reach for the A3+ pad in workshops and when a piece needs to breathe. Thin acrylics, washy gouache, ink pours and cut paper all have space here, and the 250gsm sheet has enough weight to hold a layer or two of glue.

Because the pad is top spiral bound, you can flip the cover right over and work on a table or a sloped desk without the binding getting in your way.

Why We Love the Big Kookaburra

  • Room to play. A3+ gives your layers, collage and lettering space to work together.
  • One surface, many media. Built for wet and dry, so the whole kit can come out.
  • Display ready edges. Micro-perforation means clean sheets for exhibitions and folios.
  • Great for teaching. A reliable all rounder for classes and group workshops.

How We Use It

Build from thin to thick. Start with washes, add collage, then finish with drawing, markers or paint pens. Let each layer dry fully. For very wet work, remove the sheet and tape it to a board while it dries.
