No matter the grade you prefer, UArt accepts underpainting using a wide variety of media, including water, oil and alcohol. UArt paper is sturdy enough to ensure the liquid you use doesn&#8217;t damage the tooth or seep through to the other side.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h5>Consistent paper texture<\/h5>\n<p>UArt pastel paper has a consistent texture across the paper with a computer-controlled electrostatic coating process and industry-leading standards to ensure a uniform, reliable grain application on every part of the paper. Unlike some paper that may have spots of varying texture, UArt paper has the same grade from edge to edge and corner to corner.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h5>Paper grades for different needs<\/h5>\n<p>The UArt paper texture will hold onto pigment, allowing many layers in hard or soft pastels.<\/p>\n<p>Select a texture based on the fineness of the grit you require. The finest feels quite velvety.<br \/>\n400 \u2013 a favourite of many professional pastel artists and ideal for those trying UART for the first time<br \/>\n500 \u2013 a moderate tooth for any medium<br \/>\n600 \u2013 perfect for those with a focus on detailed work<br \/>\n800 \u2013 finest tooth, popular for super fine pastel or coloured pencil application<\/p>\n<p>Two other things I noticed:<br \/>\nI noticed that the finer the surface the more lines of pastel rubbed into complete blends, leaving no lines, see the yellow squares below.<br \/>\nI thought that the finest tooth was best for thin lines with pastel pencil but for some reason the Cretacolour Pastel pencil I was using drew the finest lines on the 600 grade not the 800 grade, see the fine white lines below.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_533305\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-533305\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Uart-400to800.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Uart-400to800.jpg\" alt=\"UArt grades left to right: 400, 500, 600, 800\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" class=\"size-full wp-image-533305\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Uart-400to800.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Uart-400to800-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Uart-400to800-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Uart-400to800-620x620.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Uart-400to800-940x940.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-533305\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">UArt grades left to right:<br \/>400, 500, 600, 800<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<hr>\n<figure id=\"attachment_533686\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-533686\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/UArt-black-swatch.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/UArt-black-swatch.jpg\" alt=\"UArt grades left to right: 800, 600, 500, 400 Top row is 4 layers Bottom row is 1 layer\" width=\"1000\" height=\"549\" class=\"size-full wp-image-533686\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/UArt-black-swatch.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/UArt-black-swatch-300x165.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/UArt-black-swatch-620x340.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/UArt-black-swatch-940x516.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-533686\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">UArt grades left to right:<br \/>800, 600, 500, 400<br \/>\nI was surprised by these results so double checked that they were in the listed order and redid them.
