CHOOSING THE RIGHT PAPER GSM:

GSM (grams per square metre) measures paper thickness:

  • 200gsm+ – Best for painting and mixed media. Handles water and layering well.

  • Below 200gsm – Great for sketching, drawing, and everyday use.

All our books can be customised with your choice of GSM, colour and the order they are in—white, brown, black, or a mix.
