Vision Cover - Soft Pastel Seascape

We used Royal Talens Rembrandt Soft Pastels on the cover of this Vision Drawing pad to make a seascape that pops! All of our new Vision pads come with a blank steel blue cover under the tear-off navy blue cover so you can put your own artwork on your pad. The customizable cover is made from high quality toned blue mixed media paper that is 184lb (300gsm).

When developing this new line of pads, we listened to feedback from artists and built in the most requested features, which include:

CUSTOMIZABLE COVERS:
Artists told us they want to personalize their covers with their own art, which is why we added an extra cover for the first time so artist's could do just that.

HIGH SHEET COUNTS AT AN AFFORDABLE PRICE:
These pads are substantial. They feature extra high sheet counts, a heavy-duty chipboard backing, and durable binding so you can put them through the paces. They are very affordable for the amount of paper you get and serve as excellent practice pads. Even with their quality paper, durable construction, and customizable covers, these pads won't break the bank. We kept the price point affordable, making them an excellent value and practical for every day use.
