Excellent tight toilet paper True Black!

I cut a sheet of this paper in half because I'm a beginner at watercolor painting and didn't want to mess up and waste the sheet metal. I researched different brands and weights of pulp paper and toilet paper and decided to try 100% cotton paper to see if I could tell the difference. Oh my god, I definitely can! This article impressed me. I especially liked how this metallic paint job looked on black paper. The weight and quality of this paper will encourage me to try the best paper as I get…

Pros
  • Multipurpose paper - ideal for many materials. Ideal for creating unusual drawings with colored pencils, acrylic markers, cover sticks, ink, gouache and pastels
Cons
  • Other Other

I've been waiting for this product. Black watercolor paper.

Watercolor paper that dries evenly. Very strong paper. Nice texture. Unlike the usual cold-pressed 140. The portrait sketch was begun with a light, non-detailed, water-soluble Swiss chalk. Then a small coat of metallic watercolor...let it dry, and it dried flat, with no fasteners. Then color the layers with colored pencils. I plan to do the next portrait the same way, using more water with each step. Possibly flowery. Learning new techniques helps someone like me (who's been doing this for a…

Pros
  • LIFTING technique holds well (wet brush to remove or "lift" paint); Perfect MIXING of colors (color blends well and doesn't dry quickly)
Cons
  • Some small things

Good product and packaging, mishandled in transit

The product itself is very good with the darkest sides I have ever seen on a black watercolour/multimedia paper. The downside is that despite good packaging practices, it looks like something very heavy pressed on the top of the carrier during shipping and even pushed it through on the thicker cardboard backing. I can say that the seller really cares about the quality, but the delivery failed. However, Revain is responsible for shipping and while most of the paper is still usable I have to trim

Pros
  • Excellent wet-on-wet performance (paint applies easily and does not dry out); Withstands repeated wetting/drying for extended periods without damaging the paper
Cons
  • Only available in black
