Disappointing Quality

I was let down by the Arts and Crafts paper .As my tests showed this product simply cant handle watercolor paint as well as other options. The colors bled and the paper easily warped, making it difficult to work with. While this paper does have decent absorption, it falls short in terms of durability and flatness. For the price, I expected better results..

Pros
  • Good absorption
Cons
  • Poor quality, Warping, Bleeding

Bows - then you want the best!

Arches is the best watercolor paper. Now I use both sides of the blade to practice something that halves the price and works great. I also find that these individual leaf blocks keep their flatness and look the same as the ones that need to be peeled off after you've painted your masterpiece. Of course it's much easier.

Cons
  • Slightly torn
