Review on 🎨 Legion Stonehenge Aqua Watercolor Block: 140 Cold Press, 9 X 12 Inches - 15 Sheets of White Perfection! by Nicole Mcleod

Strange comparison that makes sense to me

I purchased this product on Instagram based on the artist's recommendation. I usually use Arches and was hoping this might be a knockout contender to save me some money. What keeps coming to mind is the comparison of Brawny paper towels to the Viva brand. If you have ever used any of them you will understand exactly what I am talking about. Brawny is up; it is very durable, absorbent and abrasion resistant. The tough ones you look for when you need something durable to get the job done. Viva is also at the top of his game. It is durable, absorbs moisture well, but is very soft. Both Brawny and Viva do what they're supposed to do, but one can clean patio furniture and the other can wipe kids' noses. Stonehenge paper is really good. but the color tends to bleed and does not stand up to cleaning. However, it does do some pretty slick things in the wet and nothing to ignore. For twenty bucks, I recommend any artist play with it at least a little.

Pros
  • Art paper
Cons
  • String is shorter than other options
