UPDATE: The Global Industrial link below no longer works but you can get cheap newsprint from Blick at this new link.

Art supplies always come with a premium. There are many of items on the market that are labeled for artists that cost multiple times more. Just look at the prices of tape for an artist versus tape at the hardware store.
Knowing this and looking for a better environmental practice with my newsprint paper I began to search for bulk newsprint sheets. Even if I could purchase newsprint for the same price per sheet but get it in bulk I would help the environment on CO2 and possible less paper if I get a stack without a cover and a backing like pads have.
Well I have found something amazing!
I found a website Global Industrial, out of New York, selling 50 pounds of newsprint for less than $50. That is around 1666 sheets of newsprint! The amazing thing is that this is smooth newsprint also.

i recently found your channel and i'm kinda wishing you would still create short videos that really help new artists get a drawing habit going. Those videos were precious and i binged watched them :D I came to this video cos I'm looking for what could be known as "bank paper" in some parts of the world -- i'm hoping to get into character illustration and I would like cheap paper that i wont be precious about, and sheer enough that I can still trace characters that I have drawn on precious page if needed. I couldn't really get close to anything I want until I remembered you recommended newsprint. Do you think newsprint papers have a good amount of sheerness for tracing?

@ChrisBeavenart Год назад

Newsprint is only good for practice drawing that you don't plan on keeping for a long time. It yellows and falls apart over time. That being said, it's the cheapest to practice on. The next paper I would recommend is strathmoore drawing paper in pads at your local art store. You could trace from it if what your tracing from is of high contrast. I would suggest getting away from tracing and grid out what you want to draw and repeat that grid on your paper. Then as you get better increase the size of your grid so that you get better at drawing and not tracing. You can see me do a lot of grids for some of my paintings on my website. chrisbeaven.com

Not strictly true about archiving. Newspapers printed from hundreds of years ago still exist in bound volumes and they look great. Years of researching have shown me. But still great 'throw away' paper if you wish to do that.

@ChrisBeavenart Год назад

Thanks for the feedback!

@maisonart9748 Год назад

I also buy the rattle can varnish pray (Windsor & newton sells it). You can spray both sides of the paper and frame it. It should last a long time and it won't yellow so quickly 👍🏽

Hey Chris! This video is so timely, I'm taking the Watts Atelier program now and as you mentioned I need smooth newsprint, is this paper good enough to use for the Watts Atelier program?

@ChrisBeavenart 3 года назад

YES! completely. I use it everyday for my warmups using 1710 charcoal pencils in weight from B to 3B. Here is a short daily art session where I was doing some gesture study with the same paper. chrisbeaven.com/daily-art-3025-2/ Hopefully they are still selling it for the same price with free shipping. Let me know if you have any more questions!

@ceciliawalker1869 3 года назад

@@ChrisBeavenart Thanks Chris, they don't actually, but it's still a good price when you compare it to how many sheets you receive as opposed to other options with only 500 sheets. I will look into this, thanks again!
