U-Art Sanded Paper 12 x 18" #500 Grade 10 Pack Sand/Natural

Every professional pastel, colored pencil or charcoal artist wants the same things from his or her art paper — a consistent base, a quality weight, and a tooth with bite. UART Premium Pastel Paper is both reliable and trustworthy to deliver everything you expect every time you create.

You never compromise on your artistic integrity, and we don’t compromise on the quality of our paper. While other pastel papers buckle under the pressure of a demanding artist, UART sanded pastel paper can handle the intensity of your creative process, protecting your work of art today and for years down the road.

Often art paper companies only offer one or two grades – UART is the only company to offer seven different grades to give you more choices in meeting your drawing and painting needs. From the rougher grade of the 240 which is ideal for the blending and layering of pastels to the finer grades that are perfect for delicate and detailed work, you can add layer on top of layer without losing tooth.

• 240 – the largest tooth available in a sanded pastel paper
• 320 – perfect for artists who desire extra layering
• 400 – a favorite of many professional pastel artists and ideal for those trying UART for the first time
• 500 – a moderate tooth for any medium
• 600 – perfect for those with a focus on detailed work
• 800 – finest tooth, popular for super fine pastel or colored pencil application

Regardless of the grade you choose, you can be sure the grade of our paper will hold on to your art, in spite of how many layers you apply or whether you use hard or soft pastels. There’s no excess flaking and fading is eradicated– your medium stays in place as you intended. Other papers may lose tooth, but UART sanded pastel paper clings to your artwork and never lets it go.
