the pastel mat is very dark to me, maybe something white would work better drawn on it
i think there should be an in between color of dark grey and light grey. other then that its really nice pastel mat to layer on.

Versatile, Forgiving, Indestructabl, Economical
After over a decade of being a dedicated professional pastelist, and having worked on almost every surface used for pastels, I now work EXCLUSIVELY with Pastelmat. Although the initial investment price is a bit more than other papers, Pastelmat is never wasted. Rather than trashing unsuccessful paintings, the dust can be brushed off and/or manipulated to create another toned surface or under painting. It also has the property of not dropping dust AND it allows for mixing of color on the surface much like liquid pigments, thereby alleviating the need for so many different colors while using less of my precious pastel sticks. One can use the soft velvety original surface or apply fixative to create a more textured surface. Taking in all these factors, I believe it to be the most economical paper on the market. As an instructor, I start students out using this support then encourage them to try other papers. Invariably they all return with the same opinion as I.

Best paper for soft pastels! Fabulous!
Said, 5 sheets, waited months for this delivery to the US, finally arrived in a huge box with one paper in it, sadly returned…waiting was ok, many issues with shipping of items everywhere but description did not match delivery! Frustrating

Worth A Try
My medium is generally color pencil, and I have worked on a wide selection of art papers and boards, so when I encountered an article espousing the features of this new paper/board I thought I would try it. I tend to be quite detailed with my subjects and found PastelMat not quite suitable for my style. That's not to say it's overall unsuitable because I have seen samples of others' work that is nothing short of astounding. I still have a couple of sample sheets on hand and will attempt other subjects and probably work with pastel instead of pencil.

Perfect,
I love everything about it! Takes layers of pastels easily. I can also use water on it for a wash. Very happy with it.

Not like normal pastelmat
It’s not the same as pastelmat. I question if this is really pastelmat and not just a knock off. It’s totally different

Genial
De todas las superficies para pastel que he probado, PastelMat es la mejor, por mucho!!!A diferencia de los sanded papers, es más suave y soporta bastantes capas de color para lograr el efecto y el resultado deseado, es algo caro pero lo vale. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
