XL®

Description

The Canson® XL® range was specifically developed to meet the needs of art students. As they use large quantities of paper, the XL® range features tough pads, with as many as 120 sheets per pad, at a competitive price! XL® also provides them with an opportunity to try out different textures and basis weights according to their personal tastes and the technique involved. There are XL® pads for sketching, drawing, layout and mixed techniques.
