Explore wet and dry techniques on the versatile Canson XL Mixed Media Pad, featuring heavyweight paper designed to handle a wide range of artistic media.
The paper has a fine texture and heavy sizing, providing a versatile surface for both wet and dry applications. It erases well and blends easily, making it useful for drawing techniques as well as mixed media work incorporating wetter materials.
Each pad is wire bound and features micro-perforated, true-size sheets, allowing finished artwork to be removed cleanly while retaining the stated sheet dimensions.

Ideal For
Made for Wet & Dry Media
Heavy sizing helps make Canson XL Mixed Media more versatile than standard sketch paper when working with wet media, while its fine texture remains suitable for drawing and dry-media techniques.
That combination makes it a practical choice for artists who like to combine drawing and painting techniques on the same surface rather than switching papers every time the medium changes.
Micro-Perforated True-Size Sheets
The sheets are micro-perforated for clean removal from the wire-bound pad. Importantly, they're designed to remain at the advertised true size after being removed along the perforation.
That's a genuinely useful feature—not merely catalog-copy confetti—particularly when an artist needs a predictable finished sheet size for presentation, storage, scanning, or framing.
