Consistent quality, great price, always worth buying

Very good for gouache. This item is a staple for our artist-in-residence and I get requests to buy it regularly. The quality is stable, allowing adjustments and refinements. The price is very reasonable, which is important. Art fails, and sometimes there is guilt over wasted supplies. Being able to assure my young artist that abandoning a project won't hurt your wallet is very liberating for both of us.

Pros
  • 8 x 10 acid free boxes
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Does not lay flat

Surface characteristics OK. Looks like a medium strength cold press. However, I was quite disappointed that they didn't stay flat even with a light wash. After drying, they do not flatten out like some types of paper. The tendency to bulge is so strong that the tape ripped out when tightening. When stretching and moistening the tape, I only use high quality paper. I've had better luck with Β£300 papers like Arches, Fabriano and especially Stonehenge because they stayed flat on the Plein easel.

Pros
  • Cold pressed French formed paper works great in any humid environment
Cons
  • Can't remember

I can't believe they exist!

Okay, I need to know why I've never heard of them? I've bought a lot of watercolor paper and I've never found one like this! I watched a video on YouTube and it was mentioned there. I came to the Amazon, searched and BAM! Here it is! They are amazing and I just bought another one! You don't have to worry about sticking it with tape, it won't bend and you can take it with you on the go! I couldn't believe the price, I was sure it would be at least $20 or $30 because it's so well made, but not…

Pros
  • Includes 10 rigid drawing boards glued to one side
Cons
  • New competitors are here
