Give your artwork a distinctive mid-tone foundation with Clairefontaine Paint'ON Denim Blue. This heavyweight 250gsm blue-grey mixed-media paper provides a soft mineral-toned surface that allows both dark marks and lighter highlights to stand out.
Suitable for a broad range of wet and dry techniques, Paint'ON Denim is ideal for artists who want an alternative to traditional white paper. The muted blue-grey surface can become part of the finished artwork, adding atmosphere, depth and contrast without overwhelming the media applied over it.

Why Work on Denim Blue Paper?
A mid-tone ground changes the way an artwork is developed. Rather than starting from bright white, artists can build both highlights and shadows from the Denim surface, helping create depth more quickly.
This makes Paint'ON Denim particularly effective for white and light-coloured pencils, graphite, pastel, ink and mixed-media work where the paper colour itself contributes to the composition.
