Paper is great, but if you want a full material shopping list check out these lesson notes - https://www.proko.com/s/b7WC
A beginner's guide to sketchbooks and paper! Learn about paper types, texture, weight, archivability and most importantly, how to avoid the common mental pitfall of sketchbooking. I'll get you started on the right path with sketchbooks so you can focus on improving your drawing skills. And you can treat this lesson as a resource you can come back to in the future when you need to refresh your memory of drawing paper.
Make sure to check out the premium course which offers a more comprehensive lesson on pencils and erasers, coming soon! The premium Drawing Basics course also gets you access to all the full lessons, project demonstrations, and critique videos that I'll be releasing in the next 18+ months!
