Art Spectrum Toned Paper Pad A3 Assorted 250gsm 40 Sheets
This colour in A4: Assorted A4
Prefer a spiral journal? The Spiral Toned Journal A3 (assorted colours).
Big sheets and a choice of colours every time you turn the page. The Art Spectrum Toned Paper Pad A3 Assorted brings together different toned grounds in one pad of 40 large, 250gsm sheets, perfect for life drawing sessions where every pose deserves its own mood.
At A3 (297 x 420mm) each colour has space to show what it can do, from warm and soft to cool and moody.
Large Sheets, Many Moods
Life drawing tutors often ask students to change paper colour between poses, because it forces a fresh way of looking. An assorted A3 pad makes that easy. One pad, one bag, and a different ground ready whenever you want it.
It is also ideal for workshops and art school, where students can try each colour and work out what suits their style. Bring charcoal and white chalk and you are ready for anything.
Why Tutors Love an Assorted A3 Pad
- Variety on demand. Switch grounds between poses without carrying several pads.
- Fresh eyes. A new colour changes how you see the model.
- Room to draw. A3 gives big gestures the space they need.
- Heavyweight paper. 250gsm handles erasing and layering.
Using Different Grounds in One Session
On lighter sheets, focus on line and shadow. On mid tones, use black and white together and let the paper do the middle values. Pin your drawings up side by side at the end of a session and compare, you will see your strengths on each colour.
Fix finished drawings and keep them flat. Once you know your favourite ground, single colour A3 pads in the same paper are available.
Questions About the Art Spectrum A3 Assorted Toned Pad

Yes. Switching paper colour between poses keeps your eye fresh, and A3 is the standard size for life drawing.
What media suit toned paper?
Art Spectrum recommends all dry techniques: pencil, charcoal, crayons, white chalk and pastels.
Why use different coloured paper for different drawings?
The colour of the ground sets the mood. Warm grounds feel soft and intimate, cool grounds feel calm or moody, and dark grounds feel dramatic.
