I need to make an 11x 14 graphite pencil drawing, but the only paper I have in that size is MiTeintes pastel. Are there any draw backs to using this paper for graphite pencil? Thx.

I haven’t used that paper very often but I would think it would be fine. Do you have a small scrap or edge where you could try it to see if you like it?

Thx for the suggestion, I’ll try on a different Mi Teintes color.
