Won't buy again

I bought this paper from for reviews. After trying the paper I'm confused by the reviews. I was looking for cheaper watercolor paper for strokes and stuff. I just can't bring myself to practice on sheet paper. It's okay to practice a brush stroke, but that's about it. First, the paper has an odd gray-blue tint. Not pure white at all, which detracts from the final product. The paper is very damp. It dries out the brush very quickly. This paper requires more water than usual to be used. Paper is not compatible with the eraser, the eraser takes layers of paper with it. It also doesn't work well with art tape. When you rip off the tape, it takes the layers of paper with it. I would not buy this paper again.

Pros
  • PREMIUM QUALITY: A thick, cold-pressed watercolor paper made from a premium pulp and cotton blend, ideal for all blending opportunities with maximum durability, comfort and no bleeding
Cons
  • Something different
