🎨 10x14 Rough Arches Watercolor Block: Premium Quality for Vibrant Artworks Review

As my tests showed, this paper is an absolute disaster for watercolors. The rough texture will leave your paints looking fractured and uneven, making it difficult to achieve a polished look to your artwork. While the paper is affordable, it's simply not worth the headache of having a ruined painting.

This paper does everything I need. The roughness allows for excellent dry brushing techniques. Washes can be light and runny - see adjacent photo. I've tried other papers and had trouble with so much sizing that the wash stays on the surface and doesn't dry, the color doesn't come off (even slightly, doesn't rub off), the paper tears when the tape is removed. So this is my favourite.
