With the holiday season upon us, I know people are looking for stocking stuffers and other small gifts, so I thought I’d plug the Hahnemühle Bamboo Mixed Media Mini-Pads that I was giving away all last week.
This paper is available in several sizes, but the 3.1 x 4.1 inch size is harder to find. It is available at Art Materials, along with the other sizes.
If you are unfamiliar with this paper, you can find my full review here.
I love this size. It’s just a little larger than ATC size, giving a bit more room to play, but still small enough to finish something quickly.
In the illustration above, I was testing the transparency of some new brush pens, and this paper is perfect for that because the colors stay so bright and it’s heavy enough that there is no warping to interfere with my test.
It’s the paper and size I go for when I need to create a drawing quickly and I know it will come out bold and striking. I also have the 9.4 x 12.5 size when I want to do something more ambitious.

I just ordered the small size bamboo pads yesterday on Amazon, and it said it was being fulfilled by Amazon, so not so hard to find. Looking forward to trying it out.
Oh good! They were out of stock the last time I looked there. I look forward to seeing what you do with your pad!
