The new Canson papers meet LYRA and Daler-Rowney to give the right color to each laboratory.
Thus was born Graduate: the concept designed for secondary school students.
Graduate is a concept that welcomes the centuries-old experience of three major brands such as Canson, LYRA and Daler-Rowney. A proposal that aims to present to secondary school students, in a simple and immediate way, the brand new blocks by combining them with the materials most suited to the techniques used, dry or wet.
The new Canson Graduate Bristol is, for example, perfect for architecture lessons: a block with an extra smooth and extra white surface that allows the graphite to flow without friction. The ideal pencils for making all kinds of projects? The HB, 2H, 3H, like the series proposed by LYRA Graduate Graphite.
For the art workshop the starting point is a sketch block. So here is Canson Graduate Schizzo, designed to fix all ideas, imaginative notes, essential details, presents a light-grained, resistant and thick paper for each hand: free, strong, indecisive, meticulous.
For the lesson in drawing and art history, there is the Canson Graduate Drawing block: with its pure white point it is the ideal support for all colors, such as the vivid one of LYRA Graduate pencils.
We then move on to the artistic laboratory with the study from life and anatomical models. Here the base is a block with ocher colored paper, like that of Canson Graduate Ocher Mixed Techniques, perfect for those who love warm colors. To work with the play of light there is instead the noble gray of Canson Graduate Gray Mixed Techniques.
For the artistic watercolor laboratory there is the new Canson Graduate Acquerello with high weight paper and excellent water absorption capacity. The fine grain, not too pronounced, makes it perfect for watercolor, pencils and water-soluble pastels and its pure white enhances the brilliance of the pigments.
For the pictorial disciplines the block is the one for mixed techniques on which to alternate markers and watercolor colored pencils. Here is the robust and versatile paper of the new Canson Graduate Mixed Techniques Wet. Ready to support generous amounts of water, it is ideal for students who paint with watercolor, gouache, pastels, crayons and easily dilutable markers such as those from Lyra Aqua Brush Duo.
For graphic and pictorial disciplines, the base is Canson Graduate Oil and Acrylic, a block with robust and versatile paper, natural white, designed for all acrylic, vinyl and oil colors. The grain resembles the linen canvas of paintings. Perfect for kicking off your creations, the very new Daler-Rowney Graduate Oil.
And for the decoration and pop-up workshop there is Canson Graduate Black: smooth surface and deep black create an intense play of light and contrasts. A paper designed to enhance the most intense and covering pigments such as those of the Lyra Graduate Mark All range.
And to write down diagrams, diagrams, drawings, illustrations for technical and in-depth studies, Canson Perforated drawing paper. A line of punched cards that fits every ring binder. And to write and underline with a single tool, Lyra Graduate Duo Sign, the double-ended pencil: on the one hand graphite HB on the other highlighter.
