Made in USA

Top Positive Review

My kids recently got into this craze of painting during the pandemic and kept asking me to buy canvases (all for paintings they were throwing away after being done). I stumbled upon this canvas paper pad and I couldn??t be happier. At a fraction of a class of canvases, it allows my kids to paint on thicker paper versus printing paper.

Pad is if high quality at a very cost effective price.

Highly recommended
