Buy the paper alongside the media rather than after it, because the two are a single decision. Graphite works on almost anything; charcoal and soft pastel need a toothed surface to hold the pigment and slide off smooth stock. An eraser suited to the medium matters more than most people expect. A board or clip keeps the sheet still. See drawing pencils, art paper and erasers.
