Specialty papers are made for a particular medium or a particular way of working. This category gathers the special papers and pads that sit outside the standard drawing and watercolour ranges.

Toned paper starts the drawing at a midtone. On grey, tan, or black sheets, shadows build downward and highlights rise in white pencil or chalk, and the paper itself carries the middle values. Pastel papers hold a pronounced tooth that grips the powder and takes layer over layer. Marker paper is coated so ink sits on the surface: the line stays sharp, the colour stays flat, and the sheet below stays clean. Smooth boards give ink and fine line a hard, even surface that takes repeated passes.

Sizes run from pocket pads to full sheets. Art & Colour carries specialty papers and pads for toned drawing, pastel, marker, and ink work, beside the standard drawing and watercolour ranges.
